Abstract The Weddell Gyre (WG) is one of the main oceanographic features of the Southern
Ocean south of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current which plays an influential role in global …

The use of unoccupied aircraft systems (UASs, also known as drones) in science is growing
rapidly. Recent advances in microelectronics and battery technology have resulted in the …

Marine megafauna are difficult to observe and count because many species travel widely
and spend large amounts of time submerged. As such, management programmes seeking …

Scientific evidence is abundantly clear and convincing that due to the current trajectory of
human-derived emissions of CO2 and other greenhouse gases, the atmosphere and ocean …

The flourishing application of drones within marine science provides more opportunity to
conduct photogrammetric studies on large and varied populations of many different species …

Speed is essential in wildlife surveys due to the dynamic movement of animals throughout
their environment and potentially extreme changes in weather. In this work, we present a …

Remote sensing is a very powerful tool that has been used to identify, map and monitor
Antarctic features and processes for nearly one century. Satellite remote sensing plays the …

Imagery from drones is becoming common in wildlife research and management, but
processing data efficiently remains a challenge. We developed a methodology for training a …

Fishery demand for Antarctic krill is increasing, and projected to continue increasing into the
future. Krill has the potential to contribute approximately 10% to all future marine landings …

The Southern Ocean is disproportionately important in its effect on the Earth system,
impacting climatic, biogeochemical, and ecological systems, which makes recent observed …
