How Far from the Shore? Federated Maritime Intelligence for Autonomous Ship and Harbor Maneuvering

Applied Sciences
Autonomous ship maneuvering in harbor environments is increasingly supported by advances in model predictive control, reinforcement learning, digital twins, multi-sensor fusion, berth allocation, and multi-agent coordination.

Quantifying post‐release behaviour of a critically endangered elasmobranch over two capture events using high‐resolution archival tag data

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract During catch‐and‐release angling, highly resident species are susceptible to multiple recapture events. Biologging offers the opportunity to study post‐release behaviour in detail; however, most studies have focused on a single capture‐release event.

Considering the Impact of Adverse Weather: Integrated Scheduling Optimization of Berths and Quay Cranes

Mathematics
To promptly address the disruptions caused by various sudden weather events to the normal operations of the quay apron, this study focuses on the optimization of integrated berth and quay crane (QC) scheduling under the impact of adverse weather.

The Unexpected Discovery of Paleocene? Coals in Outcrops Thought to Be Cambrian, Al Huqf, Oman

Journal of Petroleum Geology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Two brown organic deposits were encountered whilst investigating kaolinitic claystones thought to occur at the base of a Cambrian formation at outcrop. The age of these organic deposits is probably Paleocene from palynology. Organic petrography shows that they are subbituminous coals with some oil source potential.

Coupled Wave-Storm Surge Modeling for Fishery Harbor Under Extreme Typhoon: Toward Risk-Based Dynamic Zoning of Fishing Vessel Berths

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Under climate change, the increasing typhoon intensity poses a severe threat to fishery harbor safety through storm surges and extreme waves. Traditional empirical management approaches fail to capture the complex wave-surge coupling inside harbors ...

Influence of menstrual cycle phase on inflammatory and vascular responses to acute passive heating in healthy young women

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this study was to determine whether inflammatory and vascular responses to passive heating differ between the early follicular phase (EFP) and the mid‐luteal phase (MLP) of the menstrual cycle. Ten healthy, naturally menstruating females (26 ± 3 years of age; body mass index 21.4 ± 1.9 kg/m2) were assessed during EFP and MLP ...

Sex differences in cerebral blood flow and cardiac function in response to exercise in the heat

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract We investigated the effect of exercising in hot conditions on cerebral blood flow and systolic left ventricular (LV) function in males and females, to explore sex differences. The experimental condition consisted of walking on a treadmill at 5 km/h and 2% incline, inside a heat chamber at 40°C (50% relative humidity), for 90 min.
