Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) is a foundational state estimation problem in robotics in which a robot accurately constructs a map of its environment while also localizing itself within ...
The pursuit of autonomous driving has produced one of the richest sensor data collections in all of robotics. However, its scale and diversity remain largely untapped. Each dataset adopts different 2D...
The introduction of invasive species into marine environments is a global crisis, driving significant biodiversity loss. Here, we report the first record of a non-native hermatypic coral in Venezuela,...
Large Arctic rivers transport substantial amounts of freshwater, carbon (C), and nutrients from land to the Arctic Ocean and play an important role in continental-ocean biogeochemical coupling. Althou...
Habitat condition and area shape global species distributions, with shallow-water reefs hosting a disproportional share of marine biodiversity. Although reef area is a well-established predictor of ma...
Microplastic (MP) contamination is a notable environmental challenge affecting marine ecosystems. However, its repercussions on the reproductive success of sea turtles remain inadequately elucidated. ...
Today, relatively warm Circumpolar Deep Water is melting Thwaites Glacier at the base of its ice shelf and at the grounding zone, contributing to significant ice retreat. Accelerating ice loss has bee...
Microbe-mineral interactions play a crucial role in microbial energy conservation and mineral mobilization within deep-sea hydrothermal vents, yet the specific microorganisms involved remain largely u...
Microplastics contamination in seafood has emerged as a growing concern for environmental exposure and food safety. This study characterizes microplastics in commercially harvested Penaeus indicus fro...
Human influence on Antarctic marine ecosystems is a growing concern, despite limited available information. In this study, we assessed the effects of anthropogenic pollution on free-living nematode co...
The proliferation of antibiotic resistance in marine ecosystems represents a critical One Health challenge, particularly within coastal habitats that receive anthropogenic inputs. This study presents ...
Multinucleate cells - single cells containing multiple nuclei in a shared cytoplasm - are found across the eukaryotic tree of life. Having evolved independently in fungi, plants, protists, and animals...
Accurate measurement of sea-surface winds is critical for climate science, physical oceanography, and the rapidly expanding offshore wind energy sector. Buoy-based platforms-moored meteorological buoy...
Linear ultrasonic motors (LUSMs) occupy an important position in the field of high-precision actuation due to their advantages of simple structure, high control accuracy and direct linear motion gener...
Accurate motion prediction of floating platforms is critical for ensuring operational safety in offshore engineering applications or marine equipment testing. However, the strong nonlinearity and non-...
Antarctic marine food webs are expected to be significantly impacted by future climate change. In particular, the recent rapid regional warming in the West Antarctic Peninsula has, and will continue t...
Intertidal rockweed beds are often described as climate refuges for species, buffering harsh environmental conditions. Due to problems such as ocean warming, ocean acidification, eutrophication and tr...
Penetration testing, the practice of simulating cyberattacks to identify vulnerabilities, is a complex sequential decision-making task that is inherently partially observable and features large action...
Multi-turn LLM agents are increasingly important for solving complex, interactive tasks, and reinforcement learning (RL) is a key ingredient for improving their long-horizon behavior. However, RL trai...
