The JANUS Underwater Communications Standard.
(IEEE, 2014)There are currently no digital underwater communications standards. In this paper we describe JANUS, a simple multiple-access acoustic protocol designed and tested by the NATO Centre for Maritime Research and ... -
Joint Cetacean Data Programme (JDCP), Data Standard: Core Data Fields and Vocabulary Guidance, Version 1.2.
(Joint Nature Conservation Committee (JNCC), Peterborough, UK, 2022)One of the key objectives of the JCDP is to work with data providers to synthesise the way in which data are collected and stored, to support collation of data into a central JCDP database. The JCDP Steering Group have ... -
Joint FORCE11 & COPE Research Data Publishing Ethics Working Group Recommendations for the handling of ethical concerns relating to the publication of research data. Version 1.
(Joint FORCE11 & COPE Research Data Publishing Ethics Working Group, 2021)The scope of the Working Group is to develop recommendations for how data repositories, journal publishers, and institutions can handle ethical cases relating to the publication of research data, and steps to take if an ... -
Key Aquatic Animal Welfare Recommendations for Aquaculture.
(Aquatic Animal Alliance, New York, NY, 2020)This document is intended to provide an overview of what the Aquatic Animal Alliance, having consulted with experts globally, has identified as key areas where welfare intervention is most needed for animals used in ... -
Kimberley Saltwater Monitoring Toolbox. WAMSI Kimberley Marine Research Program Final Report Subproject 1.5.5.
(Western Australian Marine Science Institution, Perth, 2017)The Kimberley Indigenous Saltwater Science Project (KISSP) was a collaboration funded by the Western Australian Marine Science Institute (WAMSI) as part of their Kimberley Marine Research Program (KMRP). The KISSP was ... -
The KPP Boundary Layer Scheme for the Ocean: revisiting its formulation and benchmarking one-dimensional simulations relative to LES.
(2018)We evaluate the Community ocean Vertical Mixing project version of the K-profile parameterization (KPP) for modeling upper ocean turbulent mixing. For this purpose, one-dimensional KPP simulations are compared across a ... -
A Lab-On-Chip Phosphate Analyzer for Long-term In Situ Monitoring at Fixed Observatories: Optimization and Performance Evaluation in Estuarine and Oligotrophic Coastal Waters,
(2017)The development of phosphate sensors suitable for long-term in situ deployments in natural waters, is essential to improve our understanding of the distribution, fluxes, and biogeochemical role of this key nutrient in a ... -
LabSTAF and RunSTAF Handbook 2408-014-HB Issue F.
(Chelsea Technologies Ltd., West Molesey, UK, 2022)This introductory section provides a brief overview of the development of LabSTAF and RunSTAF and future aims for the development of Single Turnover Active Fluorometry (STAF). It also includes a description of the major ... -
Lagrangian ocean analysis: fundamentals and practices.
(2018)Lagrangian analysis is a powerful way to analyse the output of ocean circulation models and other ocean velocity data such as from altimetry. In the Lagrangian approach, large sets of virtual particles are integrated within ... -
LEARN Toolkit of Best Practice for Research Data Management.
(LEARN : LEaders Activating Research Networks Project, London, UK, 2017)Research data is the new currency of the digital age. From sonnets to statistics, and genes to geodata, the amount of material being created and stored is growing exponentially. However, the LERU Roadmap for Research ... -
Lessons from a Marine Spatial Planning data management process for Ireland.
(2021)This paper presents a framework containing ten components to deliver a data management process for the storage and management of data used for Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) in Ireland. The work includes a data process ... -
Leveraging Uncertainty Quantification to Design Ocean Climate Observing Systems.
(2021)Ocean observations are expensive and difficult to collect. Designing effective ocean observing systems therefore warrants deliberate, quantitative strategies. We leverage adjoint modeling and Hessian uncertainty ... -
Linking Capacity Development to GOOS Monitoring Networks to Achieve Sustained Ocean Observation.
(2018)Developing enduring capacity to monitor ocean life requires investing in people and their institutions to build infrastructure, ownership, and long-term support networks. International initiatives can enhance access to ... -
Listening forward: approaching marine biodiversity assessments using acoustic methods.
(2020)Ecosystems and the communities they support are changing at alarmingly rapid rates. Tracking species diversity is vital to managing these stressed habitats. Yet, quantifying and monitoring biodiversity is often challenging, ... -
Long-term intercomparison of two pCO2 instruments based on ship-of-opportunity measurements in a dynamic shelf sea environment.
(2021)The partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) in surface seawater is an important biogeochemical variable because, together with the pCO2 in the atmosphere, it determines the direction of air–sea carbon dioxide exchange. ... -
Long-term passive acoustic recordings track the changing distribution of North Atlantic right whales (Eubalaena glacialis) from 2004 to 2014.
(2017)Given new distribution patterns of the endangered North Atlantic right whale (NARW; Eubalaena glacialis) population in recent years, an improved understanding of spatio-temporal movements are imperative for the conservation ... -
Machine Learning Predicts the Presence of 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene in Sediments of a Baltic Sea Munitions Dumpsite Using Microbial Community Compositions.
(2021)Bacteria are ubiquitous and live in complex microbial communities. Due to differences in physiological properties and niche preferences among community members, microbial communities respond in specific ways to environmental ... -
Mainstreaming Equity and Justice in the Ocean.
(2022)Equity and justice considerations have risen to the surface in policy deliberations, management decisions, and program design related to marine conservation, fisheries management, and blue economy development. These topics ... -
Management and research applications of real-time and archival passive acoustic sensors over varying temporal and spatial scales.
(2009)Defining the appropriate scale over which to conduct a study in the marine environment is critical to achieving appropriate scientific, management, mitigation and conservation objectives. This paper focuses on applications ... -
Management of acoustic metadata for bioacoustics.
(2016)Recent expansion in the capabilities of passive acoustic monitoring of sound-producing animals is providing ex- pansive data sets in many locations. These long-term data sets will allow the investigation of questions ...
