Technical complexity associated with biodegradation testing, particularly for substances of unknown or variable composition, complex reaction products, or biological materials (UVCB), necessitates the advancement of non-testing methods such as quanti...
Previous research methodologies for quantifying Suspended Sediment Concentration (SSC) have encompassed in-situ observations, numerical simulations, and analyses of remote sensing datasets, each with inherent constraints. In this study, we have harne...
Sediment transport modeling is an important problem to minimize sedimentation in open channels that could lead to unexpected operation expenses. From an engineering perspective, the development of accurate models based on effective variables involved...
Remote sensing of suspended sediment in shallow waters is challenging because of the increased optical variability of the water, resulting from the influence of suspended matter in the water column and the heterogeneous bottom properties. To overcome...
Currently, a significant amount of research is focused on detecting Marine Debris and assessing its spectral behaviour via remote sensing, ultimately aiming at new operational monitoring solutions. Here, we introduce a Marine Debris Archive (MARIDA),...
Quantitative imaging instruments produce a large number of images of plankton and marine snow, acquired in a controlled manner, from which the visual characteristics of individual objects and their in situ concentrations can be computed. To exploit t...

Suspended sediment load is a substantial portion of the total sediment load in rivers and plays a vital role in determination of the service life of the downstream dam. To this end, estimation models are needed to compute suspended sediment load in r...
The Middle to Later Stone Age transition marks a major change in how Late Pleistocene African populations produced and used stone tool kits, but is manifest in various ways, places and times across the continent. Alongside changing patterns of raw ma...
