Data for Paper "Scalable Semantic 3D Mapping of Coral Reefs with Deep Learning"

Anders Meibom, Devis Tuia, Guilhem Maurice Louis Banc-Prandi, Jonathan Paul Sauder

Example Data for DeepReefMap This dataset contains input videos in MP4 format taken with GoPro Hero 10 Cameras in Reefs in the Red Sea to demonstrate the DeepReefMap tool, which is described in the paper "Scalable Semantic 3D Mapping of Coral Reefs with De ...

Three-Dimensional Numerical Modelling of Al-Salam Storm Water Pumping Station in Saudi Arabia

Azin Amini, Azad Koliji

The Al-Salam Pump Station will be constructed in the framework of Jeddah Storm water Masterplan (JSWM) in Saudi Arabia. The station discharges the incoming flow from the Al-Salam storm tunnel to the Red Sea. Its structure includes a circular deep wet well ...

Nutrient pollution enhances productivity and framework dissolution in algae- but not in coral-dominated reef communities

Nils Rädecker, Hal Hunt Jones II

Ecosystem services provided by coral reefs may be susceptible to the combined effects of benthic species shifts and anthropogenic nutrient pollution, but related field studies are scarce. We thus investigated in situ how dissolved inorganic nutrient enrich ...

Fast and pervasive transcriptomic resilience and acclimation of extremely heat-tolerant coral holobionts from the northern Red Sea

Anders Meibom, Guilhem Maurice Louis Banc-Prandi, Maoz Fine, Romain Savary

Corals from the northern Red Sea and Gulf of Aqaba exhibit extreme thermal tolerance. To examine the underlying gene expression dynamics, we exposed Stylophora pistillata from the Gulf of Aqaba to short-term (hours) and long-term (weeks) heat stress with p ...

In situ eutrophication stimulates dinitrogen fixation, denitrification, and productivity in Red Sea coral reefs

Nils Rädecker, Hal Hunt Jones II

Eutrophication (i.e. the increase of [in-]organic nutrients) may affect the functioning of coral reefs, but knowledge about the effects on nitrogen (N) cycling and its relationship to productivity within benthic reef communities is scarce. Thus, we investi ...

Science, Diplomacy, and the Red Sea's Unique Coral Reef: It's Time for Action

Anders Meibom, Maoz Fine

Rapid ocean warming due to climate change poses a serious risk to the survival of coral reefs. It is estimated that 70-90 percent of all reefs will be severely degraded by mid-century even if the 1.5 degrees C goal of the Paris Climate Agreement is achieve ...

A Closing Window of Opportunity to Save a Unique Marine Ecosystem

Anders Meibom, Maoz Fine

Five years in the making, a massive oil spill of 1 million barrels is imminent in the Red Sea off the coast of Yemen. Emergent action must be taken by the United Nations and its International Maritime Organization (IMO) to remove the oil, despite regional ...

Intracellular competition for nitrogen controls dinoflagellate population density in corals

Anders Meibom, Stéphane Laurent Escrig, Thomas Krüger, Maoz Fine, Julia Marie Jeanne Yvonne Bodin, Maria-Evangelia Giovani

The density of dinoflagellate microalgae in the tissue of symbiotic corals is an important determinant for health and productivity of the coral animal. Yet, the specific mechanism for their regulation and the consequence for coral nutrition are insufficien ...
