This article gives a brief overview of various aspects of data mining of multispectral image
data. We focus on specifically the remote sensing satellite images acquired using …

Compositional data are a special kind of data, represented as a proportion carrying relative
information. Although this type of data is widely spread, no solution exists to deal with the …

Coral reefs are popular for their vibrant biodiversity. By combining web-scraped Instagram
data from tourists and high-resolution live coral cover maps in Hawaii, we find that …

The ability to map coral reef biodiversity from orbit would greatly advance marine spatial
planning. Presently, reef biodiversity is measured in situ by divers, but this method is …

Environmental damage has been of much concern, particularly in coastal areas and the
oceans, given climate change and the drastic effects of pollution and extreme climate …

Satellite-derived bathymetry (SDB) techniques are increasingly valuable for deriving high-
quality bathymetric maps of coral reefs. Investigating the performance of the related SDB …

There is an increased need for habitat models of coral reefs to aid active interventions and
restoration efforts rather than just map reef habitat extent. Habitat models provide the base …

Human occupation of coastal strips generates pressures that can trigger severe degradation
processes in marine ecosystems and threaten human livelihoods and the sustainability of …

Submesoscale ocean eddies are essential oceanic phenomenon that control and influence
the ocean energy cascade. Most existing eddy detection methods rely on low-resolution …

Describing the structural complexity of seabeds is of primary importance for a number of
geomorphological, hydrodynamical and ecological issues. Aiming to bring a decisive insight …
