Pengembangan Model untuk Mendeteksi Kerusakan pada Terumbu Karang dengan Klasifikasi Citra [PDF]
The abundant biodiversity of coral reefs in Indonesian waters is a valuable asset that needs to be preserved. Rapid climate change and uncontrolled human activities have led to the degradation of coral reef ecosystems, including coral bleaching, which is a critical indicator of coral health conditions.

Predictive Model for Gross Community Production Rate of Coral Reefs using Ensemble Learning Methodologies [PDF]
Coral reefs play a vital role in maintaining the ecological balance of the marine ecosystem. Various marine organisms depend on coral reefs for their existence and their natural processes. Coral reefs provide the necessary habitat for reproduction and growth for various exotic species of the marine ecosystem.

Reconfigurable Robots for Scaling Reef Restoration [PDF]
Coral reefs are under increasing threat from the impacts of climate change. Whilst current restoration approaches are effective, they require significant human involvement and equipment, and have limited deployment scale. Harvesting wild coral spawn from mass spawning events, rearing them to the larval stage and releasing the larvae onto degraded reefs

No evidence of fish biodiversity effects on coral reef ecosystem functioning across scales [PDF]
We demonstrate that the conclusions drawn by Lefcheck et al. (2019) regarding the positive effects of fish diversity on coral reef ecosystem functioning across scales are flawed because of a series of conceptual and statistical issues that include spurious correlations, the conflation of population size and species diversity effects and a failure to ...

Integrative omics framework for characterization of coral reef ecosystems from the Tara Pacific expedition [PDF]
Coral reef science is a fast-growing field propelled by the need to better understand coral health and resilience to devise strategies to slow reef loss resulting from environmental stresses. Key to coral resilience are the symbiotic interactions established within a complex holobiont, i.e.

Automatic Coral Detection with YOLO: A Deep Learning Approach for Efficient and Accurate Coral Reef Monitoring [PDF]
Coral reefs are vital ecosystems that are under increasing threat due to local human impacts and climate change. Efficient and accurate monitoring of coral reefs is crucial for their conservation and management. In this paper, we present an automatic coral detection system utilizing the You Only Look Once (YOLO) deep learning model, which is ...

A Bayesian latent allocation model for clustering compositional data with application to the Great Barrier Reef [PDF]
Relative abundance is a common metric to estimate the composition of species in ecological surveys reflecting patterns of commonness and rarity of biological assemblages. Measurements of coral reef compositions formed by four communities along Australia's Great Barrier Reef (GBR) gathered between 2012 and 2017 are the focus of this paper.

Bayesreef: A Bayesian inference framework for modelling reef growth in response to environmental change and biological dynamics [PDF]
Estimating the impact of environmental processes on vertical reef development in geological time is a very challenging task. pyReef-Core is a deterministic carbonate stratigraphic forward model designed to simulate the key biological and environmental processes that determine vertical reef accretion and assemblage changes in fossil reef drill cores. We

Deep learning for multi-label classification of coral conditions in the Indo-Pacific via underwater photogrammetry [PDF]
Since coral reef ecosystems face threats from human activities and climate change, coral conservation programs are implemented worldwide. Monitoring coral health provides references for guiding conservation activities. However, current labor-intensive methods result in a backlog of unsorted images, highlighting the need for automated classification ...

CoralSCOP-LAT: Labeling and Analyzing Tool for Coral Reef Images with Dense Mask [PDF]
Images of coral reefs provide invaluable information, which is essentially critical for surveying and monitoring the coral reef ecosystems. Robust and precise identification of coral reef regions within surveying imagery is paramount for assessing coral coverage, spatial distribution, and other statistical analyses.
