Synthesis Report on the Environmental Impacts of Polar Research and Logistics in the Polar Regions

Polar sciences are crucial to understand the effects of climate change. 6 out of 9 eco-tipping points identified by the IPCC are situated in the polar regions. Potential rising sea levels, altered weather patterns and changes in sea-currents are all connec ...

21 000 birds in 4.5 h: efficient large‐scale seabird detection with machine learning

Devis Tuia, Benjamin Alexander Kellenberger

We address the task of automatically detecting and counting seabirds in unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery using deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs). Our study area, the coast of West Africa, harbours significant breeding colonies of terns and gul ...

Multiple Inflow Branches at Supercritical-Type Vortex Drop Shaft

Michael Pfister, Jean-Marc Ribi, Corrado Gisonni, Gaetano Crispino, Thierry Fuchsmann

Vortex drop shafts serve to overcome important elevation differences in drainage systems. If well designed, they are performant in terms of energy dissipation and safety. However, the standard design requires well-defined approach flow conditions to ensure ...

Controls on subsurface methane fluxes and shallow gas formation in Baltic Sea sediment (Aarhus Bay, Denmark)

Sabine Flury McGinnis

Shallow gas accumulates in coastal marine sediments when the burial rate of reactive organic matter beneath the sulfate zone is sufficiently high and the methanogenic zone is sufficiently deep. We investigated the controls on methane production and free me ...

Formation of disinfection by-products during ballast water treatment with ozone, chlorine, and peracetic acid: influence of water quality parameters

Urs von Gunten

As ocean-going ships begin implementing chemical disinfection to treat ballast water, the potential formation of disinfection by-products (DBPs) is an important issue of concern. This is especially critical since ballast waters are often saline, and the in ...

Seawater intrusion processes, investigation and management: Recent advances and future challenges

David Andrew Barry

Seawater intrusion (SI) is a global issue, exacerbated by increasing demands for freshwater in coastal zones and predisposed to the influences of rising sea levels and changing climates. This review presents the state of knowledge in SI research, compares ...

Enhanced Wavefield Separation of OBS Data

Loïc Arnaud Baboulaz

In ocean-bottom seismic (OBS) data processing, wavefield separation results are sometimes affected by high levels of noise on the vertical component Z, while the pressure component P is in general of good quality. Nonetheless, Z is needed to achieve comple ...

Antarctic climate during the middle Pliocene: model sensitivity to ice sheet variation

Jed Oliver Kaplan

Significant controversy exists surrounding the nature of the Antarctic ice sheet during the period of middle Pliocene warmth. This paper outlines the output from three sensitivity experiments for the middle Pliocene, using the UKMO GCM and the USGS PRISM2 ...
