Gliderpalooza 2013 to modelpalooza 2014: Joint U.S. & Canadian ocean glider operations supporting multidisciplinary scientific research and education

Gliderpalooza represented a grass-roots coordinated field demonstration of ocean observing technologies spanning the eastern seaboard of North America. The overarching goal was to coordinate disparate ocean research efforts, funded by disparate programs from a variety of agencies to demonstrate continental ...

15 MHz single element ultrasound needle transducers for neurosurgical applications

Image-guided surgery is today considered to be of significant importance in neurosurgical applications. However, one of its major shortcomings is its reliance on preoperative image data, which does not account for the intraoperative brain deformations and displacements that occur during surgery. In ...

The development of AUV strategies for multidisciplinary use

The Marine Environmental Research Lab for Intelligent Vehicles (MERLIN) operates an Explorer Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) that serves as a potential platform for ocean surveys over a broad range of disciplines. MERLIN undertook a four year development program to improve both the capacity and ...

Vessel track information mining using AIS data

In recent years, vessel traffic and maritime situation awareness become more and more important for countries across the world. AIS data contains much information about vessel motion and reflects traffic characteristics. In this paper, data mining is introduced to discover motion patterns of vessel ...

The Manx shearwater (Puffinus puffinus) as a candidate sentinel of Atlantic Ocean health

Introduction Seabirds have been historically used to monitor environmental contamination. The aim of the present study was to test the suitability of a species belonging to the Procellariiformes group, the Manx shearwater, Puffinus puffinus, as a sentinel of environmental health, by determining contaminant ...

Survey on underwater delay/disruption tolerant wireless sensor network routing

Underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs) have recently received a significant amount of attention. Since they have delay/disruption-tolerant networks (DTNs) characteristics, the design of any UWSN scheme must take DTN influences into account, especially in routing protocols. Many researchers have ...

A numerical modeling approach for study of mudbank impact on coastline

Coastal zone is the triple interface of land, ocean and atmosphere. Any developmental activity along the coastal zone requires a clear understanding of the dynamic processes controlling its very existence. When most of the processes, which are common to all coastlines are quite well known, there are ...

Transmission expansion planning considering safety index for power systems with wind farms have related wind speed

Based on the traditional transmission expansion planning(TEP) model,this paper uses chance-constrained programming method which combined with Monte Carlo simulation and Latin hypercube sampling(LHS) to handle dependencies among the input random variables. It can use to study the impact of wind speed ...

Wi-Fi broadband maritime communications using 5.8 GHz band

Current maritime communications rely on expensive or proprietary technology, such as satellite, WiMAX, and narrowband HF radios. Broadband communications are limited to the near shore 3G/4G coverage provided by mobile operators. The usage of unlicensed and IEEE 802.11 networks may provide ship owners ...

Interview [Interview Stephen Urquhart]

OVERLOOKING the Celebes Sea on the northernmost tip of Indonesia's island of Sulawesi, Stephen Urquhart and I are drinking iced tea in the sweltering equatorial heat and humidity. We've just returned from a long drive to the coastal village of Bahoi, where a handful of villagers eke out a modest subsistence ...

Lipidomic analysis of Arabidopsis seed genetically engineered to contain DHA

Metabolic engineering of omega-3 long-chain (≥C20) polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω3 LC-PUFA) in oilseeds has been one of the key targets in recent years. By expressing a transgenic pathway for enhancing the synthesis of the ω3 LC-PUFA docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) from endogenous α-linolenic acid (ALA), ...

Mercury Exposure in Ireland: Results of the DEMOCOPHES Human Biomonitoring Study

Background: Monitoring of human exposure to mercury is important due to its adverse health effects. This study aimed to determine the extent of mercury exposure among mothers and their children in Ireland, and to identify factors associated with elevated levels. It formed part of the Demonstration of ...

Mercury Exposure Levels in Children with Dental Amalgam Fillings

ABSTRACT% Objectives: Mercury combined with other metals to form solid amalgams has long been used in reconstructive dentistry but its use has been controversial since at least the middle of the 19th century. The exposure and body burden of mercury reviews have consistently stated that there is a deficiency ...

Cost-effective geotechnical and sedimentological early site assessment for ocean renewable energies

Soil mechanical properties of the seabed are related to a number of challenges in the development of ocean renewable energy. Early site assessment is an important part of the development of an ocean renewable energy project, and soil mechanical and sediment dynamical site characteristics should already ...

Laser induced breakdown spectroscopy for in situ heavy metal analysis of ocean sediments

Highly contaminated sediments exist in harbors and coastal environments due to shipping, poor management of waste, and anthropogenic inputs. Contaminated sediment is detrimental to fisheries, shell fishing, benthic communities, and human health. Measurement of heavy metals in sediments is of interest ...

High-resolution numerical weather prediction (NWP) with data assimilation over Placentia Bay, Newfoundland

Placentia Bay, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada contains numerous islands and shoals, and is a busy bay with large marine vessel traffic, fishers and small-craft users. Placentia Bay is second only to the Port of Vancouver in Canada in terms of the annual value of goods shipped. The SmartBay applied ...

Recording and identification of marine mammal vocalizations on the scotian shelf and slope

In October 2012, Fisheries and Oceans Canada began collection of two years of near-continuous autonomous acoustic recordings in the Gully Marine Protected Area and adjacent slope areas between the Gully and Shortland canyon, and between Shortland and Haldimand canyons south of Nova Scotia, Canada. Data ...

Fish recognition method using vector quantization histogram for investigation of fishery resources

This paper proposed a novel approach to the kichiji rockfish recognition method for investigation of the fish biomass. This method does not depend on the size, position and attitude of the fish, because SIFT feature with rotation invariant is used and is represented by vector quantization histogram. ...

Analyzing digital overlay technique over marine voice channel for disaster dissemination

Regardless of much advancement in terrestrial communication technologies, marine communication technology has been stagnating for the last few decades especially with fishing vessels. Bringing a new communication technology in marine is difficult because it should consider maritime regulations and should ...

Submarine optical cables: Impact on the marine environment

The submarine optical cables are one of the main parts of national and international telecommunication networks. Nowadays, the growing demand for bandwidth and transmission of vast amount of data on high bit rates causes expansion of terrestrial and submarine telecommunication network. The submarine ...
