Statistical Real-time Model for Performance Prediction of Ship Detection from Microsatellite Electro-Optical Imagers

open access: yesEURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing, 2010
For locating maritime vessels longer than 45 meters, such vessels are required to set up an Automatic Identification System (AIS) used by vessel traffic services. However, when a boat is shutting down its AIS, there are no means to detect it in open sea.

A Dynamic Business Modeling Approach to Port Sustainability: The Western Sicily Port Authority Case

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ports are critical nodes in global trade and economic development, yet they generate substantial environmental and social externalities—including greenhouse gas emissions, air, noise, and water pollution, and adverse impacts on host communities—that demand integrated and forward‐looking governance.

Ocean Governance and Marine Conservation: Institutional Work as a Lever for Ocean Sustainability

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ocean governance presents one of the most complex environmental policy challenges of our time, requiring coordinated action across multiple scales, sectors and stakeholder groups. This paper applies institutional work theory to systematically examine how actors create, maintain and disrupt the governance arrangements underpinning ocean ...

A Comprehensive Review of Fault‐Current Limiter Technologies for Smart and Resilient Power Systems

open access: yesEnergy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
This review compares superconducting, solid‐state, and hybrid fault‐current limiters (FCLs) for modern alternating current, direct current, and hybrid grids. It shows that optimal FCL selection depends on fault characteristics, network configuration, voltage level, protection coordination, and resilience requirements rather than on a universally ...

Performing history, negotiating patriarchy: Actressing as gendered labor and the fragmentation of womanhood in Chinese historical costume drama

open access: yesFeminist Anthropology, EarlyView.
Abstract Gender inequality remains widespread in the film and television production industry, yet it is seldom examined in relation to backstage working environments. This article integrates on‐screen and off‐screen perspectives to investigate the working lives of Chinese actresses.

Using art history to explore society's changing connections with agriculture

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Food insecurity is a looming challenge that especially affects those least fortunate. Consumer food choices have a substantial impact on the sustainability of current food systems. Here, we use art as a lens through which to consider our contemporary and historical relationship to one of the world's most crucial crops, the potato, in the context of the

A Complexity-Aware Course–Speed Model Integrating Traffic Complexity Index for Nonlinear Crossing Waters

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
We propose a complexity-aware extension of the Course–Speed (CS) model that integrates an AIS-derived Traffic Complexity Index (TCI) based on change in speed (ΔV) and course (Δθ) to quantify maneuvering complexity in nonlinear crossing waters.

Multi‐Platform Deployments of Low‐Cost Devices for Cetacean Passive Acoustic Monitoring

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Recent advances in affordable, user‐friendly devices offer new opportunities to overcome cost constraints of underwater passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) and expand acoustic data collection. In this study, we deployed low‐cost acoustic recorders and underwater cameras across a range of platforms in the Western Mediterranean, including fishing gear ...

A Feasibility Study of Applying SMCP to Vessel Traffic Service

open access: yesThe Journal of Japan Institute of Navigation, 2014
The goal of this paper is to evaluate the feasibility of using the Standard Marine Communication Phrases offered by the International Maritime Organization (IMO SMCP) in the context of Vessel Traffic Service (VTS) in Japan. To this end, the grammatical rules and vocabulary items used in the SMCP were analyzed to see if these rules, when applied to the ...
