Passive acoustic monitoring has been suggested as an effective tool for investigating the dynamics of biodiversity. For instance, automatic detection and classification of sounds can acquire information of species occurrences and behavioral activities of vocalizing animals. However, current methods of automatic acoustic identification of species remain uncertain for most taxa, which constrains...

Coral reefs represent the most biologically diverse marine ecosystem, however, they are vulnerable to environmental changes and impacts. Therefore, information on the variability of environment and biodiversity is essential for the conservation management of coral reefs. In this study, a soundscape monitoring network of shallow and mesophotic coral reefs was established in Okinawa, Japan....

This study investigates the impacts of horizontal resolution and surface flux formulas on typhoon intensity and structure simulations through the case study of the Super Typhoon Haiyan (2013). Three different surface flux formulas in the Weather Research and Forecasting Model are tested for grid spacing from 6 to 1 km. Both increased resolution and more reasonable flux formulas can improve the...

The standard method for estimating tropical cyclone (TC) intensity is by interpreting TC structure from geostationary satellite images, except when aircraft reconnaissance flights are routine. Since much of a TC life cycle occurs over an ocean, satellites are an excellent source of meteorological information for the task as it offers coverage much better than traditional observations. While...

Vast quantities of remote sensing data are becoming available at an ever-accelerating rate, and it is transforming geosciences today. When investigating global-scale environmental phenomena, large scale of temporal and spatial remote sensing data need to be processed to extract useful information, especially the land use types. As most powerful remote sensing image processing methods need...
