Shallow-Water Benthic Habitat Mapping Using Drone with Object Based Image Analyses

Remote Sensing, 2021
Spatial information on benthic habitats in Wangiwangi island waters, Wakatobi District, Indonesia was very limited in recent years. However, this area is one of the marine tourism destinations and one of the Indonesia’s triangle coral reef regions with a

Associations between Benthic Cover and Habitat Complexity Metrics Obtained from 3D Reconstruction of Coral Reefs at Different Resolutions

Remote Sensing, 2020
Quantifying the three-dimensional (3D) habitat structure of coral reefs is an important aspect of coral reef monitoring, as habitat architecture affects the abundance and diversity of reef organisms.

Benthic and interstitial habitats of a lentic spring as invertebrate refuges during supra-seasonal drought [PDF]

, 2013
Instream refuges are places where invertebrates persist during disturbances due to reduced adverse impacts. During droughts, low flows may be accompanied by elevated temperatures, and potential refuges including subsurface sediments and spring-fed ...

Benthic communities in the deep Mediterranean Sea: exploring microbial and meiofaunal patterns in slope and basin ecosystems [PDF]

Biogeosciences, 2013
The long-held perception of the deep sea consisting of monotonous slopes and uniform oceanic basins has over the decades given way to the idea of a complex system with wide habitat heterogeneity.

Response of Benthic Invertebrate Communities in River-Changed Ponds to River Habitat Modification in Water-Deficient Area

Tecnología y ciencias del agua, 2019
In water-deficient area, river-changed ponds are common and vital for aquatic species. This paper studies the relationship between the environmental factors and the benthic invertebrate communities in varying ponds under river habitat modifications (RHM).

A novel method for identifying fine-scale bottom-use in a benthic-foraging pinniped

Movement Ecology, 2023
Background For diving, marine predators, accelerometer and magnetometer data provides critical information on sub-surface foraging behaviours that cannot be identified from location or time-depth data.

Home range and habitat use by Kemp's Ridley turtles in West-Central Florida [PDF]

, 2003
The Kemp's ridley turtle (Lepidochelys kempii) is an endangered species whose recovery depends in part on the identification and protection of required habitats.
