Deep learning‐based super‐resolution reconstruction and improved YOLOv9 for efficient benthos detection: a case study at Lake Hamana, Japan

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study presents a UAV‐based framework that integrates deep learning‐based super‐resolution reconstruction and an enhanced YOLO detector to improve centimetre‐scale benthic organism monitoring. Using hermit crabs in Lake Hamana, a coastal lagoon in Japan, as a case study, the method substantially enhanced small‐object detection performance ...

Density and spatial distribution of the crab Ocypode quadrata (Fabricius, 1787) (Crustacea, Ocypodidae) on three sandy beaches of Espírito Santo, Brazil [PDF]

Biotemas, 2008
The relative density (number of burrows/m2) and spatial distribution of the crab Ocypode quadrata were evaluated on three sandy beaches of Vila Velha-ES: Itaparica, Itapoã and Praia da Costa.

That sinkin’ feeling: Environmentally induced distress on a disappearing island

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Residents of Tangier Island, Virginia, a subsiding island in the Chesapeake Bay, embody psychosocial dimensions of environmental change. Analysis of ethnographic data shows islanders’ experiences and articulations of anxiety, panic, and despair as “that sinkin’ feeling,” resulting from the stress of living with the long‐term threat of imminent

Studies on the ecology and behaviour of the ghost crab, Ocypode cursor (L.) in northern Cyprus

Scientia Marina, 1999
Aspects of the ecology and behaviour of Ocypode cursor were studied on the beaches of Northern Cyprus. The crabs were widely distributed around the north coast of the island, occurring on 68 of the 77 sandy beaches investigated.

Field‐grown coastal dune plants exhibit similar survival, growth, and biomass in recycled glass substrate and natural beach sand

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Restoration of coastal dunes following tropical storm events often requires renourishment of sand substrate dredged from offshore sources, although dredging has well‐described negative ecological impacts and high economic costs. As a potential solution, recycled glass sand (cullet) made from crushed glass bottles has been proposed as a potential ...

Deposit-feeding by the ghost crab Ocypode quadrata (Fabricius)

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 1981
Abstract Observations using a videotape system on a secluded, Georgia, barrier beach revealed that the ghost crab Ocypode quadrata (Fabricius) exhibits diurnal deposit-feeding behavior similar to that manifested by the sand fiddler crab Uca pugilator (Bosc).

Atlantic ghost crabs (Ocypode quadrata) as coastal bioindicators: assessing human impact across the South Atlantic Bight

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
Sandy beach ecosystems are increasingly threatened by human activity, making it critical to effectively evaluate their health. While this has often been done using an urbanization index (a tool that quantifies the level of human impact) and a ...
