JellyNet: The convolutional neural network jellyfish bloom detector
International Journal of Applied Earth Observation and Geoinformation, 2021 Coastal industries face disruption on a global scale due to the threat of large blooms of jellyfish. They can decimate coastal fisheries and clog the water intake systems of desalination and nuclear power plants.

A swarm behaviour for jellyfish bloom detection [PDF]
Ocean Engineering, 2017 In this paper we will deal with the issue of swarm behaviour for jellyfish detection using UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles). Swarm behaviour is inspired by the functioning of biological swarms. They are characterized by being fully distributed, scalable and fault-tolerant.

Temporal drivers of abundance and community structure of scyphozoan jellyfish in tropical coastal waters [PDF]
PeerJPopulation blooms of scyphozoan jellyfish in tropical shallow water regions can fuel localized fisheries but also negatively impact human welfare. However, there is a lack of baseline ecological data regarding the scyphozoans in the region, which could ...
