Scalable low‐cost seabed landers: the missing link for sustained, integrated, long‐term observations in dynamic shallow seas

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Seabed landers, when equipped with a range of biotic and abiotic sensors, offer a non‐invasive and cost‐effective solution for ecosystem‐scale monitoring of Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs) and Essential Ocean Variables (EOVs) in dynamic shallow seas.

Remote Sensing With Machine Learning to Monitor Seagrass Meadows: Long‐Term Trends in Tauranga Harbour, New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.
Seagrass meadows play critical roles in coastal ecosystems by stabilising sediments, supporting biodiversity and sequestering carbon, yet monitoring their recovery at scale is often constrained by the lack of scalable and repeatable approaches. This study applies an open‐source remote‐sensing framework to track long‐term changes in Zostera muelleri in ...

Floods From Space: How Remote Sensing, AI, and Cloud Platforms Are Reshaping Disaster Risk Reduction

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 3, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Flooding remains one of the most damaging climate‐related hazards globally, yet flood remote sensing has historically developed largely along sensor‐specific pathways. This review addresses the need for a systematic and decision‐oriented synthesis of how space‐borne remote sensing has evolved toward integrated flood monitoring and disaster ...

Identifying and addressing critical gaps to accelerate seagrass restoration in Africa

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 63, Issue 8, August 2026.
Seagrass restoration science in Africa is highly regionalised and fragmented and approaches inconsistent, highlighting the need for more unified and standardised approaches to restoration trials. However, current gaps in knowledge provide exciting opportunities, that when addressed will strengthen seagrass restoration science and capacity.

MarineFlux: A Data Service for Shipboard Air–Sea Fluxes

Geoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 3, July 2026.
The MarineFlux project is providing access to direct and bulk turbulent air–sea flux observations via an Environmental Research Division's Data Access Program (ERDDAP) service and a graphical user interface, known as the MarineFlux Explorer. The design, development, and usage of these services are presented to support the needs of the air–sea flux ...

Orbital Electrowetting: From Continuous Droplet Transport to Programmable Microfluidics

Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 33, 12 June 2026.
This work comprehensively summarizes the mechanisms, recent advances, potential applications, and key challenges of orbital electrowetting. It highlights that integrating orbital electrowetting with conventional electrowetting is required to enable complete digital‐microfluidic workflows while simplifying platform architecture.

Within-reef biomass partitioning in a Mediterranean vermetid reef: a baseline for future monitoring

Frontiers in Marine Science
Biomass is an essential indicator for assessing the quality, stability, productivity, and health of ecosystems and it is increasingly used as a practical monitoring parameter within the Essential Ocean Variables (EOV) framework. In the Mediterranean Sea,

Impact of parameterization in multiple acoustic index comparisons: practical cases in terrestrial and underwater soundscapes

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, Volume 12, Issue 3, Page 388-400, June 2026.
Parameter choices in acoustic analyses (sampling frequency, FFT size and window overlap) strongly influence multivariate soundscape separation. Using terrestrial and coral reef recordings, we show that these settings can exaggerate or mask ecological differences, emphasizing the need for parameter sensitivity testing and transparent reporting in ...

Global Analysis of Shallow Underwater Fish Observation Research: 70 Years of Progress, Persistent Geographic Biases and a Path Forward

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 3, Page 607-626, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Marine ecosystems are increasingly threatened by overfishing, pollution, coastal development and climate change, underscoring the need for long‐term, representative information on key fish populations and habitats to inform management and policy.

From Data to Decision: Leveraging Essential Variables in Standardizing Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services Monitoring and Reporting

Conservation Letters, Volume 19, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Fragmented systems for monitoring and assessing biodiversity and ecosystem services limit the ability to track progress at local and national scales in international multilateral environmental agreements (MEAs). This greatly challenges coordinated actions to meet agreed‐upon global commitments.
