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