Biocompatibility of a lab-on-a-pill sensor in artificial gastrointestinal environments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
n this paper, we present a radiotelemetry sensor, designed as a lab-in-a-pill, which incorporates a two-channel microfabricated sensor platform for real-time measurements of temperature and pH.

The physical oceanography of the transport of floating marine debris [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Marine plastic debris floating on the ocean surface is a major environmental problem. However, its distribution in the ocean is poorly mapped, and most of the plastic waste estimated to have entered the ocean from land is unaccounted for.

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

open access: yesRemote 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 ...

Corrosion Performance of Zn-Al-Cd Alloy in Amphora-containing f/2 Culture Medium

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2016
The corrosion properties of Zn-Al-Cd alloy in Amphora-containing culture media were investigated by using electrochemical AC impedance method, polarization curve research, and surface microstructure analysis methods. The results showed that the corrosion

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

open access: yesRemote 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.

The use of gliders for oceanographic science: the data processing gap [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Autonomous gliders represent a step change in the way oceanographic data can be collected and as such they are increasingly seen as valuable tools in the oceanographer’s arsenal.

Cabomba caroliniana and Schoenoplectus californicus as Antifouling Candidates: Anti‐Attachment and Toxicological Effects in Aurelia coerulea (Cnidaria, Scyphozoa)

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Biofouling on artificial surfaces in aquatic ecosystems leads to significant economic losses. Current antifouling paints, while effective, often harm the aquatic environment. This study explores ecologically safe antifouling alternatives derived from plants, focusing on the aquatic macrophytes Cabomba caroliniana (CC) and Schoenoplectus ...

Biomimicking Micropatterned Surfaces and Their Effect on Marine Biofouling

open access: yesLangmuir, 2014
When synthetic materials are submerged in marine environments, dissolved matter and marine organisms attach to their surfaces by a process known as marine fouling. This phenomenon may lead to diminished material performance with detrimental consequences.

Natural antifouling compound production by microbes associated with marine macroorganisms — A review

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Biotechnology, 2016
In the marine environment, all hard surfaces including marine macroorganims are colonized by microorganisms mainly from the surrounding environment. The microorganisms associated with marine macroorganisms offer tremendous potential for exploitation of ...

Toward a Global Regime of Vessel Anti-Fouling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Vessel anti-fouling is key to the efficient operation of ships, and essential for effective control of invasive species introduced through international shipping. Anti-Fouling Systems, however, pose their own threats to marine environments.
