<span>RapidBenthos</span> : Automated segmentation and multi‐view classification of coral reef communities from photogrammetric reconstruction Open
Underwater photogrammetry is routinely used to monitor large areas of complex and heterogeneous ecosystems, such as coral reefs. However, deriving data on benthic components (i.e. sand, rubble, coral and algae) from photogrammetry products…

Coral reef habitat complexity decreases and diversifies local availability of light Open
The spatial distribution of environmental conditions can determine where organisms can and cannot live. When the distribution of microhabitats within a landscape is mediated by the shape of its surface, structural complexity can indirectly…

Postpartum Sciatic Neuropathy After Uncomplicated Vaginal Delivery Open
Postpartum neuropathies are common, including femoral neuropathy, peroneal neuropathy, lumbosacral trunk plexopathy, and lateral femoral cutaneous neuropathy. Sciatic mononeuropathy in the peripartum period is rare. Postpartum sciatic neur…

Coral settlement and recruitment are negatively related to reef fish trait diversity Open
The process of coral recruitment is crucial to the functioning of coral reef ecosystems, as well as recovery of coral assemblages following disturbances. Fishes can be key mediators of this process by removing benthic competitors like alga…

A geometric basis for surface habitat complexity and biodiversity Open
Structurally complex habitats tend to contain more species and higher total abundances than simple habitats. This ecological paradigm is grounded in first principles: species richness scales with area, and surface area and niche density in…

A comparison of calibration methods and system configurations of underwater stereo-video systems for applications in marine ecology Open
Stereo-video systems are used by marine ecologists to count and measure the size of aquatic organisms.Most marine ecologists are not experts in underwater photogrammetry and are not necessarily aware of someof the key design and implementa…
