In structural health monitoring (SHM) systems, data is collected from a multitude of sensors measuring, for example, vibration or strain in the structure, along with additional features that capture e...
Microplastics have become a ubiquitous environmental contaminant in natural waters, raising significant concerns regarding aquatic ecosystem health and potential human exposure. A comprehensive synthe...
The deep sea contains a wealth of potential mineral resources, many of which are being investigated for commercial exploitation. Exploration and technical tests started in the late 1970s with an initi...
This paper presents a bioinspired thermochromic actuator that mimics natural camouflage systems by switching between visible and stealth modes in response to temperature changes. Thus, the innovation ...
Effective autonomous monitoring of marine litter is vital to reduce marine pollution and protect marine ecosystems. However, current underwater detection systems face significant challenges, primarily...
Forecasting the evolution of dynamic environments is crucial for autonomous agents. While generative world models have recently achieved high photorealism in 2D video synthesis by mixing ego-motion an...
Microbial degradation represents a promising remediation strategy for polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polycarbonate (PC) microplastics, which have been widely detected in the Haima cold seeps. However, t...
Global superanoxia is widely accepted as one of the main drivers of the end–Permian Mass Extinction (EPME) alongside, oceanic acidification, productivity collapse, and toxification. However, modeling ...
Vast amounts of munitions dumped in the marine environment, have been reported to leak chemicals due to munition corrosion. The subsequent increased levels of explosives and related chemicals (E&RC), ...
Evolutionary habitat transitions are known to drive rapid evolution. In fishes, switches between marine and freshwater can promote adaptation in sensory systems; in particular, the disparate visual en...
Anaerobic methanotrophic (ANME) archaea have been primarily documented by metagenomic analysis of environmental samples. The mechanisms that drive their diversification and speciation are poorly under...
Ocean iron fertilization (OIF) is being discussed as a potential carbon dioxide removal (CDR) strategy1. Yet the trade-offs between climate benefits and ecological costs remain poorly understood2-4. H...
Chemical contamination threatens marine biodiversity, but detecting chronic sublethal effects on early-life development remains challenging. In this study, we developed a chronic larval bioassay based...
The origin and maintenance of marine biodiversity remain poorly understood, particularly in highly connected oceanic environments where extensive dispersal is expected to limit population differentiat...
Iron is one of the most important elements of the Earth, yet its bioavailability is limited in oceanic environments. In this context, deep-sea hydrothermal ecosystems represent one of the major source...
Although sea-ice ridges are prominent features of the Arctic Ocean, very little is known about their role as habitats and in biogeochemical cycles. Here, we show that ridges provide complex sea-ice ha...
Fish is widely recognized as a valuable source of high-quality proteins, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential micronutrients. However, these nutritional benefits are increasingly compromised by marine p...
Oil pollution is one of the most persistent and harmful anthropogenic pressures on global marine and coastal ecosystems. Accidental discharges, chronic leaks, operational spills from shipping, offshor...
Accurate classification of sea turtle species is crucial for ecological monitoring and conservation, yet traditional visual classification methods remain limited by underwater imaging challenges such ...
Environmental DNA (eDNA) is increasingly used for assessing marine biodiversity, yet its potential for monitoring seasonal dynamics in tropical coral reef ecosystems requires further systematic invest...
