Clustering Acoustic Backscatter in the Angular Response Space [PDF]
, 2007 Backscatter mosaicking is a necessary step in the analysis and interpretation of sidescan and multibeam sonar records. However, due to limitations intrinsic to the mosaicking technique, backscatter mosaics are restricted in their capacity to ...

Anomalous Seafloor Morphologies: Insights from the CORSUB Project (Tyrrhenian Sea, Italy)
The CORSUB project aims to explore and investigate unidentified morphological features located between 75 and 100 meters depth off the Punta Licosa Promontory (Tyrrhenian Sea, Campania, Italy), on submerged terraces. These features were firstly observed during a survey in 2004,where a biogenic origin was hypothesized, but no further research had been ...

Surface‐Driven Protocell Formation in Geologically Relevant Early Earth Environment
ChemSystemsChem, Volume 8, Issue 2, March 2026.Illustration of a prebiotic early‐Earth environment showing cell‐like protocells (blue spheres) and other complex organic molecules (pink and green spheres) distributed across terrestrial surfaces and within subsurface niches. Volcanic landscapes and mineral‐rich substrates provide diverse geochemical settings for the assembly and evolution of ...

Chasing Fish: 130 Years of Innovation, Displacement and Depletion in Scottish Fisheries
Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 227-247, March 2026.ABSTRACT Rebuilding the depleted fisheries of the 21st century requires an understanding of past drivers of their decline. Despite Scotland's central role in the commercial exploitation of North Sea fisheries for over a century, associations between technological innovations, regulatory introductions and fishery landings have not previously been ...

Number One Reef: An overstepped segmented lagoon complex on the KwaZulu-Natal continental shelf
South African Journal of Science, 2012 This study of the bathymetry of the mid-shelf of the Durban Bight, KwaZulu-Natal revealed a series of previously undocumented seafloor features. These features were mapped using a high-resolution multibeam bathymetric echosounder and a detailed map of ...
