Advancements in CARIS SIPS backscatter and seabed classification
, 2017 Following the public release of SIPS Backscatter, a new algorithm for processing multibeam backscatter imagery, Teledyne CARIS has continued investment in this approach to provide reliable backscatter mosaics that can be used to support a variety of seabed mapping tasks.

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.We show that the functional diversity of fishes promotes multifunctionality in seagrass meadows. We found that there was consistency in the seascape context and connectivity variables that structured the rate and distribution of different components of functioning and the functional diversity of fish in seagrass meadows.

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 500-520, February 2026.ABSTRACT Since the 2011 Great East Japan earthquake, tsunami evacuation towers have been constructed in coastal regions based on worst‐case predictions to provide additional safety margins against unprecedented tsunamis. However, the extent to which such assumptions effectively reduce casualty risk remains unclear.

A regional seabed geomorphological map over part of the southwestern pacific plate
Journal of MapsWe use the GEBCO global bathymetric product alongside other data sets, including magnetic anomaly and vertical gravity gradient, to interpret the seabed geomorphology of approximately 24.7 million km2 of the southwestern Pacific Plate at an effective ...

Site Selection of Onshore Wind and Solar Farms With Hydrogen Energy Storage: A Review
Energy Storage, Volume 8, Issue 1, February 2026.ABSTRACT Onshore wind farms (OWF) and onshore solar farms (OSF) are essential to the global transition to renewable energy. Their complementary generation patterns enhance power supply stability and improve grid reliability. Co‐located projects can optimize land use and share infrastructure, reducing costs while increasing efficiency.

Tectonics as a Regulator of Shoreline Retreat and Rocky Coast Evolution Across Timescales
AGU Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Rocky coast morphology is shaped by interactions between wave action, sea level, and tectonics over millennial time scales. However, a clear and quantifiable signature of tectonic uplift on decadal to centennial shoreline retreat rates is outstanding.

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract The biological carbon pump sequesters carbon through passive fluxes of biologically derived carbon, and by active vertical movement of marine organisms. Trophic coupling between pelagic and benthic communities increases the efficiency of the biological carbon pump as less carbon is lost to remineralization.

On Importance of Acoustic Backscatter Corrections for Texture-based Seafloor Characterization [PDF]
, 2012 Seafloor segmentation and characterization based on local textural properties of acoustic backscatter has been a subject of research since 1980s due to the highly textured appearance of sonar images. The approach consists of subdivision of sonar image in
