Along the Great Barrier Reef, multi-year fish and oceanographic data were integrated to determine shelf-scale relationship between environmental variables with reef assemblage structure. We used from long-term monitoring of fishes sourced underwater visual surveys baited remote video stations, combined a regional hydrodynamic model, mooring observations, surface drifting buoy trajectories. Mult...

To understand the physical and biological relationships often requires high resolution sampling far exceeding present capabilities. If spatially adaptive sampling can be developed, data resolution can be greatly improved over that presently possible with conventional sensor platforms. One technique to achieve both spatially and temporally adaptive sampling is an Autonomous Oceanographic Samplin...

Working in the ocean is difficult, and deceptively simple questions such as 'how will changing CO2 levels effect the biota in the deep ocean?' require the best scientific and engineering talent to work cooperatively to obtain answers. However, in this period of rapid technological change, the threshold for participation is rising. Individual research groups must master increasingly complex tech...

I evaluated long-term changes in hydrological conditions (temperature, salinity and dissolved oxygen) in Korean sea waters in relation to the regional land climate change (air temperature and precipitation) based on available meteorological and oceanographic data. Regression analyses, spatial patterns and cross-correlations on the climatologic and hydrological factors suggested that industriali...
