Prioritizing Seafloor Mapping for Washington's Pacific Coast. [PDF]

open access: yesSensors (Basel), 2017
Remote sensing systems are critical tools used for characterizing the geological and ecological composition of the seafloor. However, creating comprehensive and detailed maps of ocean and coastal environments has been hindered by the high cost of operating ship- and aircraft-based sensors.

Real-Time Seafloor Segmentation and Mapping [PDF]

open access: yesISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
Posidonia oceanica meadows are a species of seagrass highly dependent on rocks for their survival and conservation. In recent years, there has been a concerning global decline in this species, emphasizing the critical need for efficient monitoring and ...

Editorial: Seafloor Mapping of the Atlantic Ocean [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The WC1 cell surface family of molecules function as hybrid gamma delta (γδ) TCR co-receptors, augmenting cellular responses when cross-linked with the TCR, and as pattern recognition receptors, binding pathogens. It is known that following activation, key tyrosines are phosphorylated in the intracytoplasmic domains of WC1 molecules and that the cells ...

Automated underwater image analysis reveals sediment patterns and megafauna distribution in the tropical Atlantic [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports
The deep-sea comprises diverse habitats and species whose characterisation provides crucial insights into the health and resilience of our oceans. Whereas direct sampling enables investigation of the vertical variability of the seafloor at small spatial ...

Editorial: Seafloor mapping using underwater remote sensing approaches

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Pomimo pokrycia ponad 70% powierzchni Ziemi, mniej niż 20% dna morskiego zostało dokładnie zmapowane. Obecne globalne inicjatywy mają na celu zmianę tego stanu wiedzy i wygenerowanie globalnej mapy dna morskiego o rozsądnej rozdzielczości do 2030 roku.

Applications of Seafloor Mapping Using Precise Sonars

open access: yesKartografija i Geoinformacije, 2009
Seafloor measurements using single-beam, multi-beam, sub-bottom, and side-scan sonars which enable detailed mapping of solid objects in sediments, seafloor structure and depth can provide useful information for marine traffic as well as scientific ...

Acoustic Seafloor Classification Using the Weyl Transform of Multibeam Echosounder Backscatter Mosaic

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
The use of multibeam echosounder systems (MBES) for detailed seafloor mapping is increasing at a fast pace. Due to their design, enabling continuous high-density measurements and the coregistration of seafloor’s depth and reflectivity, MBES has become a ...

Seafloor and Ocean Crust Structure of the Kerguelen Plateau from Marine Geophysical and Satellite Altimetry Datasets

open access: yesGeomatics, 2023
The volcanic Kerguelen Islands are formed on one of the world’s largest submarine plateaus. Located in the remote segment of the southern Indian Ocean close to Antarctica, the Kerguelen Plateau is notable for a complex tectonic origin and geologic ...

Multispectral multibeam backscatter response of heterogeneous rhodolith beds

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Acoustic backscatter has been used as a tool to map the seafloor in greater detail and plays an increasingly important role in seafloor mapping to meet multiple ocean management needs.

Implementation of an automated workflow for image-based seafloor classification with examples from manganese-nodule covered seabed areas in the Central Pacific Ocean

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Mapping and monitoring of seafloor habitats are key tasks for fully understanding ocean ecosystems and resilience, which contributes towards sustainable use of ocean resources. Habitat mapping relies on seafloor classification typically based on acoustic
