Automated Feature Extraction and Classification of Submerged Cultural Heritage Assets in the Puck Lagoon via Multisensor Remote Sensing

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a strong framework for the detection and classification of Submerged Cultural Heritage Assets (SCHA) in shallow marine environments using the integration of multibeam echosounder and airborne LiDAR bathymetry with object‐based image analysis and fuzzy logic–based classification.

Marine biofouling resistance rating using image analysis

Journal of Coatings Technology and Research, 2022
Biofouling on ship hulls can cause increased fuel consumption and the global spread of nonindigenous species. The shipping industry utilizes fouling control coatings (FCC) to prevent biofouling from occurring on the ship hull. The evaluation standards for the performance of FCC are based on manual inspections, which unavoidably induce some degree of ...

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Microfouling on biocidal and non-biocidal antifouling coatings

Journal of Agricultural and Marine Sciences, 2015
Although antifouling marine paints have been used to prevent biofouling, not much is known about their effectiveness in preventing attachment of microorganisms.

Progress of marine biofouling and antifouling technologies [PDF]

Chinese Science Bulletin, 2010
Adhesion of marine fouling organisms on artificial surfaces such as ship hulls causes many problems, including extra energy consumption, high maintenance costs, and increased corrosion. Therefore, marine antifouling is an important issue. In this review, physical and biochemical developments in the field of marine biofouling, which involves biofilm ...

The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Antifouling Protection of Surfaces Immersed in Marine Environment by Natural Surfactants as Bioactive Contained in Coating Based on Natural Resin

Chemical Engineering Transactions, 2019
Surface biofouling of materials immersed in the marine environment is a problem that particularly affects maritime industries and equipment. The biological community present in these environments develops on the immersed surfaces of different structures,
