The Citizen Observation of Local Litter in coastal ECosysTems (COLLECT) project (2021-2022) is a citizen science initiative, supported by the Partnership for Global Ocean (POGO), which aimed to acquire distribution and abundance data plastic litter seven countries: Africa (Benin, Cabo Verde, Côte d’Ivoire, Ghana, Morocco, Nigeria) Asia (Malaysia). In this paper, we describe workflow used establish run project, as well methodologies data. COLLECT consisted training local students (15 - 18...
Micronekton consist of crustaceans, cephalopods, gelatinous organisms, and fishes that are 2–20 cm in size (Figure 1). These organisms have unique functional traits impact their vertical migration patterns ecosystem processes (Aparecido et al., 2023). Our understanding potential carbon transport sequestration from the epipelagic (upper 200 m) to mesopelagic zones (200–1,000 or deeper (e.g., Boyd 2019; Le Moigne, Cavan 2019) is limited by tools traditionally used assess biomass, diversity,...
Technological improvements have significantly shifted our fundamental knowledge of the ocean, particularly deep sea. However, lack cost-effectiveness and accessibility in technologies remains a limiting factor scientific understanding ocean. Research vessels traditionally served as primary platforms for ocean observations, deep-sea ecosystems. These are equipped to deploy various instruments, including autonomous tethered robots, observe biological, chemical, physical components...
The deep ocean, defined as waters below 200 meters, is a vital component of global ecosystems. It represents 93% the world’s living space by volume, supports immense biodiversity and biomass, offers unique genetic resources, plays key role in ecosystem services climate regulation. However, its vast remote nature poses significant challenges for sampling research, which can particularly limit early-career ocean professionals (ECOPs) from engaging science. Surveys conducted Deep Ocean...
Plastic pollution is both a societal and environmental problem citizen science has shown to be useful tool engage the public professionals in addressing it. However, knowledge on educational behavioral impacts of projects focusing marine litter remains limited. Our preregistered study investigates impact project Citizen Observation Local Litter coastal ECosysTems (COLLECT) participants' ocean literacy, pro-environmental intentions attitudes, well-being, nature connectedness, using...
Introduction A defining aspect of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) assessment reports (AR) is a formal uncertainty language framework that emphasizes higher certainty issues across reports, especially in executive summaries and short for policymakers. As result, potentially significant risks involving understudied components climate system are shielded from view. Methods Here we seek to address this latest, sixth report (AR6) one such component—the deep ocean—by...
Abstract Temporal distributions of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) density and aggregation types were characterized compared using Nortek Signature100 SIMRAD Wideband Autonomous Transceiver (WBAT) upward-looking echosounders. Noise varied between the two With Signature100, it was necessary to correct data for background, transient, impulse noises, while WBAT needed be corrected background noise only. For selected regions with no visible backscatter, signal-to-noise ratio Sv values (i.e....
The impact of a cyclonic (C), an anticyclonic (AC) eddy and transition zone (TZ), which is the area between two eddies, on acoustic groups representing various mesopelagic organisms, was investigated using semi-supervised multifrequency classification approach (hereafter, Escore algorithm). algorithm involved selecting regions interest (ROIs) within (18, 38, 70, 120 kHz) echograms classifying into four clusters or echo-classes S v differences (S v18-38 , v70-38 v120-38 ). Acoustic densities...
Abstract Aggregation structures of Antarctic krill ( Euphausia superba ) and predator interactions were investigated using active acoustic data collected for approximately one month by WBAT Signature100 echosounders deployed on moorings in two hydrographically different sites Bransfield Strait. Near Nelson Island, water flows from the northwest to southeast while Deception Island is influenced Front with stronger net current velocities southwest northeast. Krill aggregations identified then...
