Zigzag persistence for coral reef resilience using a stochastic spatial model [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 A complex interplay between species governs the evolution of spatial patterns in ecology. An open problem in the biological sciences is characterising spatio-temporal data and understanding how changes at the local scale affect global dynamics/behaviour.

Scalable Semantic 3D Mapping of Coral Reefs with Deep Learning [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Coral reefs are among the most diverse ecosystems on our planet, and are depended on by hundreds of millions of people. Unfortunately, most coral reefs are existentially threatened by global climate change and local anthropogenic pressures. To better understand the dynamics underlying deterioration of reefs, monitoring at high spatial and temporal ...

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 Coral diseases contribute to the decline of reef communities, but factors that lead to disease are difficult to detect. In the present study, we develop a multi-species model of colony-scale risk for the class of coral diseases referred to as White ...
