The characterization of particle and plankton populations, as well as microscale biophysical
interactions, is critical to several important research areas in oceanography and limnology. A …

Plankton are an extremely diverse and polyphyletic group, exhibiting a large range in
morphological and physiological traits. Here, we apply automated optical techniques …

The phytoplankton community can vary within hours (physiology) to years (climatic and
anthropogenic responses), and monitoring at different timescales is relevant for …

Through in situ holographic imaging of undisturbed water, diatom colonies with high aspect
ratios have been found to exhibit preferential horizontal orientation within high biomass …

Digital holography provides a unique perspective towards studying aquatic
particles/organisms. The ability to sample particles in undisturbed conditions, coupled with …

Coastal zones are among the most productive areas in the world, offering a wide variety of
valuable habitats and ecosystems services. Despite the low population density in the …

The Labrador Sea is a high latitude sea of the sub-Arctic region known to be an important
oceanic sink for atmospheric CO2 due to intensive convective mixing during winter and the …

Suspended particles are important components of coastal marine ecosystems that are often
the target of environmental sensing efforts (eg harmful algae blooms, suspended …

With the general objective of evaluating the spatiotemporal distribution of plankton under
different environmental conditions, governed by physical processes, on the inner shelf off …

Coastal ecosystems are productive and serve as breeding or nursery areas for a wide range
of coastal and marine organisms. These ecosystems are mainly vulnerable to anthropogenic …
