The Soundscape Code

1 week ago | marinetechnologynews.com | Wendy Laursen

Damselfish can make pops, clicks and chirps by grinding their teeth. When seeking a mate, some can make more high-pitched sounds. Another coral reef dweller, the snapping shrimp, makes a sound with its large claw to stun its prey or deter predators. A cavitation bubble is formed when the claw opens and closes rapidly, and the sound is produced when the bubble collapses. It's sounds like these that can be used as a proxy measure for reef health.
Artificial Reef or Ecological Trap

2 weeks ago | marinetechnologynews.com | Wendy Laursen

There's not a lot of data on the underwater ecosystems developing on and under floating wind structures; there's just not that many of these farms installed yet. A recent study by researchers in Scottish set out to analyze what data there is and to hypothesize about what the potential positive and negative effects might be for marine life. It's potentially important because floating offshore wind is being developed on highly productive shelf seas.
Fugro's Blue Eclipse┬" USV Makes Commercial Debut

3 weeks ago | marinetechnologynews.com | Wendy Laursen

This week, Fugro announced the first commercial contract for its Blue Eclipse® uncrewed surface vessel (USV). For the first time in its history, Norway's MAREANO will use USV technology to acquire seabed mapping data for the Norwegian Hydrographic Service. The Blue Eclipse®, the largest USV in Fugro's fleet, will survey over 675 square kilometers in the North Sea, with water depths ranging from 90 to 250 meters.
Teledyne's Compact Navigator Unlocks Big Potential on Smaller Vehicles

3 weeks ago | marinetechnologynews.com | Greg Trauthwein

By Greg Trauthwein At Ocean Business in Southampton, Teledyne Marine debuted a number of advanced technologies, led by the Compact Navigator, the world's smallest and highest performing, fully integrated autonomous navigation solution. Rolf Christensen, Snr. Product Manager, dives into the tech with Marine Technology TV.
Machine Learning Versus Statistics

1 month ago | marinetechnologynews.com | Wendy Laursen

A study published last week used a wave flume to evaluate the effects of waves on small-diameter pipelines. The experimental data was interpreted statistically and using machine learning. The difference between the two is fundamental. As a pointed out recently: In statistics, the main objective is to understand relationships between variables, make predictions, test scientific hypotheses and provide explanations based on data.
A New Approach to Studying the Air-Sea Flux

1 month ago | marinetechnologynews.com | Wendy Laursen

A group of over 50 researchers have made the case for a new permanent unmanned surface vessel (USV) network to complement the mature and emerging networks within the Global Ocean Observing System (GOOS). They have drawn up a blueprint for guiding the global USV community towards an integrated approach to a key ocean observing frontier: the air-sea flux (the interface between the ocean and the atmosphere).
The Biggest Conservation Commitment in the World

1 month ago | marinetechnologynews.com | Wendy Laursen

At COP 15 in December 2022, over 190 countries adopted a framework for action in support of the Convention on Biological Diversity. The framework includes 23 targets aimed at reversing habitat and species loss. Target 3, known as "30x30", calls for the effective protection and management of 30% of the world's terrestrial, inland water and coastal and marine areas by the year 2030. Put simply, says the Nature Conservancy, 30x30 is the biggest conservation commitment the world has ever seen.
Whale Song

Who is listening to whale song? Quite a lot of people it turns out, and those who are filtering it out of their data are missing an opportunity for greater understanding of humans, whales and oceans. Earlier this year, a group of linguists, developmental scientists, marine biologists and behavioral ecologists from Griffith University in Australia considered how human babies discover words in speech and how this might be related to the fact that language is culturally transmitted.
Subsea Inspection's New Boss

1 month ago | marinetechnologynews.com | Wendy Laursen

IBM recently explained why AI orchestration is important: As AI systems grow more advanced, a single AI model or agent can be insufficient for handling complex tasks. Autonomous systems frequently struggle to collaborate because they are built across multiple clouds and applications, leading to siloed operations and inefficiencies. AI agent orchestration bridges these gaps, enabling multiple AI agents to work together efficiently and ensuring that sophisticated tasks are run seamlessly.
Warming's "Evil Twin"

1 month ago | marinetechnologynews.com | Wendy Laursen

This week Sonardyne announced the integration of its CONTROS HydroC dissolved CO2 sensor from -4H-JENA engineering into its Origin 600 Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler, a development aimed at unlocking new capabilities for ocean acidification research. The combined solution enables precise, real-time monitoring of dissolved carbon dioxide levels alongside detailed current profiling.
