Abstract Severe slugging represents a major challenge in offshore production systems, potentially compromising operational stability and the integrity of installations. Although established simulators such as OLGA® are widely used for its analysis, there is a gap in the literature regarding the application of the one‐dimensional simulator ALFAsim® for ...

A conversation with James V. Zidek
AbstractThis article documents a series of exchanges between the authors and the senior Canadian statistician Jim Zidek in early 2026. The interview traces his life trajectory, surveying his principal contributions to statistics while offering insights into his motivations, successes, and challenges. Zidek is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada and

Ocean Governance and Marine Conservation: Institutional Work as a Lever for Ocean Sustainability
ABSTRACT Ocean governance presents one of the most complex environmental policy challenges of our time, requiring coordinated action across multiple scales, sectors and stakeholder groups. This paper applies institutional work theory to systematically examine how actors create, maintain and disrupt the governance arrangements underpinning ocean ...

A Method for the Interpretation of Sonar Data Recorded during Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Missions
Image acquisition from autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) is useful for mapping objects on the seabed. However, there are few studies on the interpretation of data collected with side-scan sonar during autonomous underwater vehicle missions.
