Fe- and Cu-Complex Formation with Artificial Ligands Investigated by Ultra-High Resolution Fourier-Transform ion Cyclotron Resonance Mass Spectrometry (FT-ICR-MS): Implications for Natural Metal-Organic Complex Studies.
(2016)In recent years, electrospray-ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) has been increasingly used to complement the bulk determination of metal-ligand equilibria, for example via competitive ligand exchange-adsorptive cathodic ... -
Ferries and Environmental DNA: Underway Sampling From Commercial Vessels Provides New Opportunities for Systematic Genetic Surveys of Marine Biodiversity.
(2021)Marine environmental DNA (eDNA) is an important tool for biodiversity research and monitoring but challenges remain in scaling surveys over large spatial areas, and increasing the frequency of sampling in remote locations ... -
A field and video annotation guide for baited remote underwater stereo-video surveys of demersal fish assemblages. [GOOS ENDORSED PRACTICE]
(2020)1. Baited remote underwater stereo-video systems (stereo-BRUVs) are a popular tool to sample demersal fish assemblages and gather data on their relative abundance and body size structure in a robust, cost-effective and ... -
Fishing for data and sorting the catch: assessing the data quality, completeness and fitness for use of data in marine biogeographic databases.
(2015)Being able to assess the quality and level of completeness of data has become indispensable in marine biodiversity research, especially when dealing with large databases that typically compile data from a variety of ... -
Fishing Gear as a Data Collection Platform: Opportunities to Fill Spatial and Temporal Gaps in Operational Sub-Surface Observation Networks.
(2020)While the observation of the open ocean is well achieved by automated ocean measurement instruments, coastal and shelf seas suffer the lack of sub-surface collection platforms. Commercial fishing gear such as bottom ... -
FLOWW Best Practice Guidance for Offshore Renewables Developments: Recommendations for Fisheries Liaison.
(The Crown Estate, Edinburgh, Scotland, 2014)The offshore renewables energy sector is developing rapidly to meet the future energy needs of the nation, reduce the nation’s reliance on carbon based fuels and help secure security of supply. As the industry develops, ... -
A fluorescence-activated cell sorting subsystem for the Imaging FlowCytobot.
(2017)Recent advances in plankton ecology have brought to light the importance of variability within populations and have suggested that cell-to-cell differences may influence ecosystem-level processes such as species succession ... -
Free-ocean CO2 enrichment (FOCE) systems: present status and future developments.
(2014)Free-ocean CO2 enrichment (FOCE) systems are designed to assess the impact of ocean acidification on biological communities in situ for extended periods of time (weeks to months). They overcome some of the drawbacks of ... -
From heterogeneous marine sensors to sensor web: (near) real-time open data access adopting OGC sensor web enablement standards.
(2017)Sensor engineering is continuously evolving as devices become cheaper, smaller, more intelligent, and more efficient. Today, oceanographic sensors aim at monitoring marine processes by means of physical, chemical, ... -
From Interoperability to Harmonization in Metadata Standardization: Designing an Evolvable Framework for Metadata Harmonization [Doctoral Thesis]
(KTH School of Computer Science and Communication, Stockholm, Sweden, 2010)Metadata is an increasingly central tool in the current web environment, enabling large-scale, distributed management of resources. Recent years has seen a growth in interaction between previously relatively isolated ... -
Funding research data management and related infrastructures.
(Science Europe - Knowledge Exchange, Brussels, Belgium, 2016)Research Funding Organisations (RFO) and Research Performing Organisations (RPO) throughout Europe are well aware that science and scholarship increasingly depend on infrastructures supporting sustainable Research Data ... -
Future Vision for Autonomous Ocean Observations.
(2020)Autonomous platforms already make observations over a wide range of temporal and spatial scales, measuring salinity, temperature, nitrate, pressure, oxygen, biomass, and many other parameters. However, the observations ... -
A General Methodology for Beached Oil Spill Hazard Mapping.
(2020)The current lack of a standardized approach to compute the coastal oil spill hazard due to maritime traffic accidental releases has hindered an accurate estimate of its global impact, which is paramount to manage and ... -
The generalized data management and collection protocol for Conductivity-Temperature- Depth Satellite Relay Data Loggers.
(2015)The software routines for data sampling and processing that are implemented on-board telemetry devices (tags) called Conductivity-Temperature-Depth Satellite Relay Data Loggers (CTD-SRDLs) enable the simultaneous collection ... -
A generic framework for individual-based modelling and physical-biological interaction.
(2018)The increased availability of high-resolution ocean data globally has enabled more detailed analyses of physical-biological interactions and their consequences to the ecosystem. We present IBMlib, which is a versatile, ... -
Genomics in marine monitoring: New opportunities for assessing marine health status.
(2013)This viewpoint paper explores the potential of genomics technology to provide accurate, rapid, and cost efficient observations of the marine environment. The use of such approaches in next generation marine monitoring ... -
Global Inventory of AUV and Glider Technology available for Routine Marine Surveying. [@ September 2013]
(National Oceanography Centre for NERC Marine Renewable Energy Knowledge Exchange, Southampton, UK, 2013) -
Global in situ Observations of Essential Climate and Ocean Variables at the Air–Sea Interface.
(2019)The air–sea interface is a key gateway in the Earth system. It is where the atmosphere sets the ocean in motion, climate/weather-relevant air–sea processes occur, and pollutants (i.e., plastic, anthropogenic carbon ... -
A Global Review of Cumulative Pressure and Impact Assessments in Marine Environments.
(2016)Ever more extensive use of marine space by human activities and greater demands for marine natural resources has led to increases in both duration and spatial extent of pressures on the marine environment. In parallel, the ... -
Good enough practices in scientific computing.
(2017)Computers are now essential in all branches of science, but most researchers are never taught the equivalent of basic lab skills for research computing. As a result, data can get lost, analyses can take much longer than ...
