Automated Stone Detection on Side-Scan Sonar Mosaics Using Haar-Like Features

Geosciences, 2019
Stony grounds form important habitats in the marine environment, especially for sessile benthic organisms. For the purpose of habitat demarcation and monitoring, knowledge of the position and abundance of individual stones is necessary.

Projected Responses of Tidal Dynamics in the North Sea to Sea-Level Rise and Morphological Changes in the Wadden Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
This study explores the projected responses of tidal dynamics in the North Sea induced by the interplay between plausible projections of sea-level rise (SLR) and morphological changes in the Wadden Sea.

Analyses of sea surface chlorophyll a trends and variability from 1998 to 2020 in the German Bight (North Sea) [PDF]

Ocean Science
Satellite remote sensing of ocean colour properties allows observation of the ocean with high temporal and spatial coverage, facilitating the better assessment of changes in marine primary production.

Sea-level change in the Dutch Wadden Sea [PDF]

Netherlands Journal of Geosciences, 2018
AbstractRising sea levels due to climate change can have severe consequences for coastal populations and ecosystems all around the world. Understanding and projecting sea-level rise is especially important for low-lying countries such as the Netherlands.

Mytilus galloprovincialis-type foot-protein-1 alleles occur at low frequency among mussels in the Dutch Wadden Sea [PDF]

, 2002
The presence of M. galloprovincialis-type genes among the population of mussels in the Dutch Wadden Sea, historically described as M. edulis, was assessed.

Macrozoobenthos as an indicator of habitat suitability for intertidal seagrass

Ecological Indicators, 2023
Seagrass meadows form the foundation of many coastal ecosystems, but are rapidly declining on a global scale. To conserve and restore these key-ecosystems, improved understanding of drivers behind seagrass presence and recovery is needed.

Small-Scale and Long-Term Variability in Population Dynamics of the Cockle Cerastoderma edule in a Southern North Sea Tidal Flat System

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The cockle Cerastoderma edule is one of the most common macrofauna species in the Wadden Sea areas of the North Sea. Cockle population dynamics are influenced by various abiotic and biotic factors such as temperature, food availability, and inter- and ...

Marine bivalve geochemistry and shell ultrastructure from modern low pH environments [PDF]

, 2011
. Bivalve shells can provide excellent archives of past environmental change but have not been used to interpret ocean acidification events. We investigated carbon, oxygen and trace element records from different shell layers in the mussels Mytilus ...

Management of the Wadden Sea [PDF]

Helgoländer Meeresuntersuchungen, 1980
The Wadden Sea situated along the North Sea coasts of Denmark, the Federal Republic of Germany and The Netherlands represents one of the world's largest bar-built type of estuaries. The area is a typical sedimentation and mineralization basin, with a large influx of organic matter from the adjoining North Sea, consequently a delicate oxygen balance and

Spatial and temporal dynamics of Pacific oyster hemolymph microbiota across multiple scales

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Unveiling the factors and processes that shape the dynamics of host associated microbial communities (microbiota) under natural conditions is an important part of understanding and predicting an organism's response to a changing environment.
