This paper addresses localization and mapping of flexible ocean structures. The methodology is based on a network of low cost acoustic transmitters on the structure and receivers stationed in the vicinity of the structure. The position of the receivers is assumed to be known. The position of each transmitter ...
This work considers the coverage of underwater areas with a mobile robot with constrained control and communication capabilities. While underwater, the robot can control its depth but it is subject to flow in the other directions. While on the surface, it can move (essentially) freely. The aim of the ...
While aquaculture and IoT have exponentially grown in the world in the last years, the combination of both domains still remains at its early stage. Although water monitoring is at the center of the aquaculture activity, its complexity can often push fish farmers to neglect it. We believe that developing ...
This paper explores the need for an appropriate energy delivery, placing emphasis on the role of the indigenous people in developing their future needs. The case study is based on Togo renewable energy sustainability and employs qualitative and quantitative research to achieve the result. The study ...
The waste of feed has always restricted the development of aquaculture. This paper presents an algorithm that can accurately obtain the residual information of feeds after a feeding event. With the purpose of applying the residual feed counting algorithm to the actual production, we focused on solving ...

Most underwater robots use multiple sets of thrusters with motors and propellers to drive them independently that makes them bulky, inflexible and complex. In this paper, the propeller is innovatively designed that it can change the pitch that can be applied to underwater robots. The compact design, ...
In the paper, an assistive teleoperation technique for underwater intervention is addressed. The key idea behind the proposed method is simple as that, by touching several points on the touch screen, one can move the manipulator to an object; it can reduce the burden for operators to teleop-erate every ...
The clay dam is fragile and easily found leaking because of the multiple filling and biological damage. When the leakage problem arises, it is critical to find out its causes and solutions to provide the basis for reinforcement. In this paper, there is a reservoir in the mountain area with its clay ...
The use of Aliivibrio fischeri as a water quality sensor for monitoring aquaculture water is of great interest. Here, a Uniform Ray design was employed to study the mixture of five important toxicants present in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) water. The results were compared with the Concentration ...
Presents the table of contents/splash page of the proceedings record.
The ammonia nitrogen content in aquaculture water is an important factor affecting the health of the aquaculture objects. It is an important indicator of the most common pollution emission and monitoring in intensive aquaculture. At present, it is difficult to realize on-line real-time monitoring of ...
In recent ten years, China has been promoting supply-side structural reform positively and speeding up the development of the national blue economy to accelerate the transformation of the mode of Marine economic development. However, there are many limitations in the traditional mathematical statistics ...
Conference proceedings front matter may contain various advertisements, welcome messages, committee or program information, and other miscellaneous conference information. This may in some cases also include the cover art, table of contents, copyright statements, title-page or half title-pages, blank ...
The Ecological Footprint (EF) method is applied here to assess alternative policies regarding the Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) management. This approach arises from two considerations. First, the MSW management certainly requires a great attention by politicians and technicians, due to its importance ...
This paper presents a new packet-forwarding mech-anism for underwater acoustic networks. The solution, termed MPR-Light, combines the modus operandi of the Multi-Point Relay (MPR) protocol and of the Enhanced Flooding (EFlood), both described in [1]. MPR-Light aims at providing the ro-bustness of a ...
Nowadays, the need of reducing the negative impact of boats during their entire lifecycle is furtherly strengthened by the increasingly businesses and services carried out within the marine space. In this context, several regulations and research streams are aimed to cope with this need, leading to ...
Due to the different craniocervical structures in humans and cetaceans, a standardised method assessing the normal craniocervical relationship in cetaceans is lacking, causing difficulties in defining the presence of atlanto-occipital dissociation (AOD) in cetaceans. The present study aimed to 1) describe ...
Purpose We examined if data-driven food-patterns associate with weight change, incidence of type 2 diabetes (T2D), coronary events (CE) and stroke. Methods The study included 20,487 individuals (61% women) from the Malmö Diet and Cancer cohort, 45–74 years, without diabetes and CVD at baseline (1991–1996) ...
Background The 2015–2020 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend a Mediterranean-type diet as one of three healthful eating patterns. However, only one previous trial has evaluated the effects of a Mediterranean diet intervention in a US sample population. Methods To address this gap, we conducted ...
