  1. 1. Navigating the Waves of Conservation: Spatiotemporal Patterns in Harbour Porpoise Strandings in Swedish Waters

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Vigge Ulfsson; [2024]
    Keywords : Strandings; spatiotemporal patterns; harbour porpoise;

    Abstract : Harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) are the only cetacean residents found year-round in Swedish waters. Since in situ monitoring of cetaceans can be difficult, invasive and often costly, strandings can be used as a cost-effective alternative to continuously collect data on these elusive animals.

  3. 2. IDENTIFICATION OF ENVIRONMENTALLY RELEVANT BENTHIC FORAMINIFERA FROM THE SKAGERRAK FJORDS BY DEEP LEARNING IMAGE MODELING

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Institutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Marko Plavetic; [2023-06-26]
    Keywords : benthic foraminifera; deep learning; environmental monitoring; YOLOv7;

    Abstract : Over the several past decades, there has been increasing interest in using foraminifera as environmental indicators for coastal marine environments. As compared to macrofauna, which are currently used in environmental studies, foraminifera offer several distinct advantages as bioindicators, including short generation times, a high number of individuals per small sample volume, hard and durable tests with high preservation potential, and low cost of sample extraction.

  4. 3. Primary Drivers of Sea Level Variability in the North – Baltic Sea Transition Using Machine Learning

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : David Ek; [2023-01-09]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Global mean sea level is rising, however not uniformly. Regional deviations of sea surface height (SSH) are common due to local drivers, including surface winds, ocean density stratifications, vertical land- & crustal movements and more. READ MORE

  5. 4. Machine learning-assisted image analysis and metabarcoding for monitoring of plankton in the seas surrounding Sweden

    University essay from KTH/Industriell bioteknologi

    Author : Karin Garefelt; [2023]
    Keywords : Imaging FlowCytobot; imaging-in-flow cytometry; plankton imaging; convolutional neural network; metabarcoding; Imaging FlowCytobot; flödesmikroskopi; övervakning av plankton; konvolutionella neuronnät; DNA-streckkodning;

    Abstract : I miljöövervakningen av haven runt Sverige har manuell mikroskopi av plankton länge varit den huvudsakliga tekniken för att övervaka växtplanktonbestånden och algblomningar. Nya tekniker utvärderas, men det är inte känt hur resultaten från de nyare teknikerna relaterar till varandra. READ MORE

  6. 5. Challenges of cross-border collaboration and coordination in marine national parks.

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för marina vetenskaper
