Occupancy models estimate a species' occupancy probability while accounting for imperfect detection, but often overlook the issue of false-positive detections. This problem of false positives has gained attention recently with the rapid advancement o...
Fungi play a critical role in ecosystems, contributing to biodiversity and providing economic and biotechnological value. In this study, we developed a novel deep learning-based framework for the classification of seven macrofungi species from the ge...
Passive acoustic monitoring can offer insights into the state of coral reef ecosystems at low-costs and over extended temporal periods. Comparison of whole soundscape properties can rapidly deliver broad insights from acoustic data, in contrast to de...
Mangrove ecosystems are important in tropical and subtropical coastal zones, contributing to marine biodiversity and maintaining marine ecological balance. It is crucial to develop more efficient, intelligent, and accurate monitoring methods for mang...
Marine pollution poses a significant threat to ecosystems, biodiversity, and human health, necessitating a structured evaluation framework. This study applies the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) to prioritize five major marine pollution sourc...
Rivers play a crucial role in in global matter cycling and energy flow, contributing significantly to biogeochemical cycles and the development of human civilization. Reservoirs, as prevalent artificial water bodies, modify river flow and impact ener...
Herbicide contamination of aquatic ecosystems poses a critical risk to biodiversity. Bioassays provide useful ecological insights on responses to herbicides; however, they require a model organism. Ulva australis is an ideal candidate for herbicide t...
Cyanobacterial blooms pose significant threats to aquatic ecosystems and public health due to their ability to release harmful toxins, degrade water quality, disrupt aquatic habitats, and endanger human and animal health through contact or consumptio...
