Five Otherworldly Species At Risk From Deep-Sea Mining : Vent shrimp

open access: yes, 2021
The deep-sea is completely dark, exposed only to bioluminescence. Abyssal fauna is not accustomed to the light emitted from deep-sea mining machines, and so they could be blinded by them. That’s what happened to vent shrimp (Rimicaris exoculata), a snow-

Visual Localization for Deep-Sea Mining Vehicles During Operation

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Deep-sea mining operations demand continuous, drift-free positioning over multi-day missions—a requirement that traditional acoustic dead-reckoning systems struggle to meet due to cumulative error accumulation and frequent DVL bottom-lock loss in ...

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Nonparametric and Parametric Modeling of Hydrodynamics for a Fully Appended Autonomous Underwater Vehicle

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Hydrodynamic models underpin Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) design, motion control, and performance evaluation. Existing methods face two critical bottlenecks: (1) conventional explicit CFD requires predefined trajectories, which fails to capture ...
