Dense Scattering Layer Removal
We propose a new model, together with advanced optimization, to separate a thick scattering media layer from a single natural image. It is able to handle challenging underwater scenes and images taken in fog and sandstorm, both of which are with ...

UNDERWATER IMAGE RESTORATION ANDENHANCEMENT USING HYBRID ALGORITHM
Underwater image restoration and enhancement using a Hybrid algorithm to evaluate the undersea activities like underwater vehicles to carry optical imaging systems for recording. The captured images and videos frequently suffered from two displeasing problems: 1. Color distortion; 2. Poor visibility.

Oyster Bed Mapping in the Great Bay Estuary, 2012-2013 [PDF]
Six major oyster beds (reefs) in New Hampshire are mapped periodically to assess wild oyster populations in the Great Bay Estuary. Data on the spatial extent of the beds are combined with density and other measures to estimate the abundances of live ...

Underwater Image Restoration Based on Image Blurriness and Light Absorption [PDF]
Underwater images often suffer from color distortion and low contrast, because light is scattered and absorbed when traveling through water. Such images with different color tones can be shot in various lighting conditions, making restoration and enhancement difficult. We propose a depth estimation method for underwater scenes based on image blurriness

Mapping and Characterizing Subtidal Oyster Reefs Using Acoustic Techniques, Underwater Videography and Quadrat Counts [PDF]
Populations of the eastern oyster Crassostrea virginica have been in long-term decline in most areas. A major hindrance to effective oyster management has been lack of a methodology for accurately and economically obtaining data on their distribution and

The African hind's (Cephalopholis taeniops, serranidae) use of artificial reefs off Sal Island (Cape Verde): a preliminary study based on acoustic telemetry [PDF]
The African hind Cephalopholis taeniops (Valenciennes, 1828) is one of the most important commercial demersal species caught in the Cape Verde archipelago. The species is closely associated with hard substrate and is one of the main attractions for SCUBA

Underwater Image Restoration via Non-Convex Non-Smooth Variation and Thermal Exchange Optimization
The quality of underwater images is an important problem for resource detection. However, the light scattering and plankton in water can impact the quality of underwater images. In this paper, a novel underwater image restoration based on non-convex, non-
