Advancing Ocean Observation with an AI-driven Mobile Robotic Explorer
Rapid assessment and enhanced knowledge of plankton communities and their structure in the productive upper water column is of crucial importance to understand the impact of the changing climate on upper ocean processes. Enabling persistent and systematic observation by coupling the ongoing...
High-resolution numerical modelling of a marine mine tailings discharge in Western Norway
Formation and fate of oil-related aggregates (ORAs) in seawater at different temperatures
Impact of UV degradation on the fate and potential impact of textile microfibers and their additive chemicals in the marine environment
Microfibers (MFs) are frequently reported as the most dominant type of microplastic (MP) found in the marine water column and sediments. A major source of MFs is the use and washing of textiles. Although WWTPs can remove up to 98% of MP, estimates suggest billions of MP are still released from a...
Automated biometric analysis of early fish life stages via instance segmentation using Mask-RCNN
An old topic of emerging concern: Impacts of mineral (mining) particles on early life stages of fish
Several anthropogenic activities, such as dredging for marine navigation maintenance, subsea construction including the construction of offshore windfarms, urban development, and subsea and land-based mining activities can increase suspended particle loads in the pelagic environment. In Norway...
Using fish embryos for in situ exposure and effects assessment of multiple stressors in the environment
Low concentrations of organic pollutants cause deleterious effects on early life stages of marine fish. Short-term embryonic exposure causes a range of effects like pericardial oedema, jaw and craniofacial deformations, yolk sac oedema, lack of pigmentation, small eyes and spinal curvatures. Such...
