Design and Testing of a Minimal Configuration Underwater Micro‐Glider: Automating Lake and Reservoir Monitoring

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Uncrewed underwater vehicles (UUVs) have transformed oceanographic research through autonomous data gathering. Similarly, lake and other aquatic research can potentially be automated and transformed. However, UUVs would need to be smaller, lighter, less complex, and cheaper than currently available to make them more practical and user‐friendly

Automated object detection based on YOLOv11 for monitoring benthic population dynamics: A new approach combining photogrammetry and open‐source GIS tools applied to sea cucumbers

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This research established a new object detection model based on YOLOv11 to recognise benthic organisms, specifically sea cucumbers, by utilising high‐resolution photogrammetric‐based orthomosaics acquired along infralittoral Mediterranean Sea beds. The model demonstrated impressive performance metrics and, when combined with the Deepness plugin for the

Semi‐automated seal detection on the Western Antarctic Peninsula: an unsupervised machine learning approach for detecting ice seals in aerial survey data

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study presents a semi‐automated, rule‐based image analysis pipeline to detect ice seals in aerial surveys of the Western Antarctic Peninsula during an unusually low sea ice year. By using simple hierarchical clustering instead of deep learning, the method substantially reduced human annotation effort while achieving 82% recall, identifying 758 ...

Classification of tree species and standing dead trees in Boreal forests using UAV‐based RGB, multispectral, and LiDAR point clouds

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We evaluated single‐ and multi‐sensor UAV approaches for classifying tree species and standing dead trees in boreal forests, focusing on key biodiversity indicators such as European aspen. Using spectral and structural features extracted from RGB, multispectral (MSP), and LiDAR point clouds for 1,205 field‐measured trees, we compared classification ...

Accounting for animal movement during aerial imaging surveys

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Animals are not stationary during aerial surveys; if their movements are related to the movement of the aerial platform, then bias can be introduced into subsequent population count estimates. We sought to establish a framework for assessing the impacts of animal movement on count error and platform bias by comparing aggregated counts and relative ...

Solar Impulse - Ground vibration testing and finite element model validation of a lightweight aircraft

, 2011
This paper addresses the challenges in ground vibration testing and in finite element model updating of superlight aircraft structures where the influence of the surrounding air on experimental modal data is no longer negligible.

Climate‐Driven Mangrove Dieback and Recovery: A Case Study in Albert and Leichhardt Rivers, Australia

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Cycles of dieback and recovery drove mangrove forest dynamics at the Albert and Leichhardt Rivers (Gulf of Carpentaria, Queensland, Australia) over 36 years (1987–2023). Landward margins were the most affected by reduced tidal inundation when the alignment of low lunar declination suppressed tidal range and extreme El Niño phases lowered mean sea level.
