The control system designing of Unmanned Wave Glider (UWG) is challenging since the control system is weak maneuvering, large time-lag and large disturbance, which is difficult to establish accurate mathematical model. Meanwhile, to complete marine e...
We report on a Lab-On-Valve (LOV) configuration for analyte preconcentration from milliliter sample volumes using confluent mixing in the holding coil for in-line addition of loading buffer. The system was applied to the spectrophotometric determinat...

An on-water remote monitoring robotic system was developed for indirectly estimating the relative density of marine cyanobacteria blooms at the subtidal sandy-rocky beach in Balandra Cove, Baja California Sur, Mexico. The system is based on an unmann...
In this study, artificial neural network such as a self-organizing map (SOM) was used to assess for the effects caused by climate change and human activities on the water quality in Daya Bay, South China Sea. SOM has identified the anthropogenic effe...
Accurate assessment of chlorophyll a (Chla) concentration distribution and variations is significant for environmental monitoring and ecological research. However, the inversion of Chla in different optical types of water bodies can only be achieved ...
Due to extensive anthropogenic activities in coastal areas and rivers connected to the seas, effective and timely monitoring the sea water quality (SWQ) is crucial for maintaining ecosystem health. SWQ monitoring involves examining the chemical, phys...
Phytoplankton are the primary producers of marine neurotoxins such as β--methylamino-l-alanine (BMAA), which cause seafood poisoning outbreaks in estuarine and coastal regions. BMAA has gained much attention for its pathogenic link to Alzheimer's and...
We describe the use of an optical hyperspectral sensing technique to identify the smoltification status of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) based on spectral signatures, thus potentially providing smolt producers with an additional tool to verify the os...
The deep chlorophyll maximum (DCM) layer is an ecologically important feature of the open ocean. The DCM cannot be observed using aerial or satellite remote sensing; thus, in situ observations are essential. Further, understanding the responses of mi...
The genus Bathypterois (tripod fish) comprises 19 species of deep-sea fishes distributed worldwide. The biology and distribution of the species of this genus are relatively poorly known throughout the Eastern Central Pacific (ECP). This work aims to ...
