Advances in Marine Vertebrate Research in Latin America
Author: Marcos R. Rossi-Santos
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319569856
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 508
Book Description
This book gathers the most recent research findings on ecology and conservation of marine vertebrates in Latin America, making use of high technological methods to show readers the diversity of the marine research that has been conducted in these countries over the last decades. The book brings authors from more than 23 institutions of 7 different countries developing the most diverse research aiming at ocean conservation through the ecology of different vertebrate animals, such as whales, dolphins, manatees, turtles, seabirds and fish. This book deals with technological advances and innovation in the ecology and conservation of marine vertebrates in Latin America. This eclectic collection is broad in scope but provides detailed summaries of new methods that are deployed in the study of marine environmental conservation. Key issues revolve around the development and application of educational methodologies in the field of marine vertebrate research, which provide a rational basis for better management of marine environments using modern techniques associated with GIS, satellite tracking, aerial systems, bioacoustics, biogeochemistry, genetics, underwater videography, species photoidentification, molecular biology, trophic ecological methods, ethological methods, and behavioural ecology, among others. Discussion and elucidation of these kinds of techniques are aimed at university-level students and post-graduate researchers. The scope of this volume includes whales, sharks, rays, dolphins, tropical fishes, turtles, manatees as well as aspects of Latin American marine ecosystem conservation. Researchers in this biogeographic region, as well as others involved with marine vertebrate research, will find this work essential reading.

Research Advances in Intelligent Computing
Author: Anshul Verma
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 1040010431
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 261
Book Description
Researchers and scientists have invested a great deal of effort into developing computers and other devices to be more capable of doing a wider range of tasks. As a result, the potential of computers to do a wide range of tasks in different environments, at varying speeds, and in smaller forms is growing dramatically every day. Currently, there is a race to create robots or computers with human-level intelligence. Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the ability of a machine or software to think like a human being. The study of the human brain, specifically how humans learn, make decisions, and react when trying to solve issues, is the basis of AI. The creation of intelligent software and systems, or intelligent computing (IC), is the outcome of AI studies. An IC system can perceive, reason, learn, and use language. In IC systems, AI and other cutting-edge techniques are employed to create system intelligence. IC has been applied to almost every area of computer science, including networking, software engineering, gaming, robotics, expert systems, natural language processing, computer vision, image processing, and data science. In modern times, IC is also employed to tackle a wide range of challenging issues in numerous disciplines, such as weather forecasting, agriculture science, medicine, and economics. This book offers the most recent advancements in both IC and AI for all these reasons.

Plastic Ocean: Art and Science Responses to Marine Pollution
Author: Ingeborg Reichle
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110744775
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 272
Book Description
Our oceans are in an ecological crisis due to their contamination with millions of tons of toxic microplastic particles. In just a few years, the volume of microplastic particles will exceed that of plankton in our oceans and turn them into a huge sea of plastic. This publication brings together numerous international art projects related to environmental activities, DIY biotechnology, and science, and draws attention to the irreversible destruction of our marine ecosystems – the current threat posed by the loss of marine animal biodiversity, for example, or the decline in oxygen production due to massive plankton loss. It also presents current scientific findings on sustainable alternatives to plastic.

Soundscape Ecology
Author: Almo Farina
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9400773749
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 326
Book Description
Soundscape Ecology represents a new branch of ecology and it is the result of the integration of different disciplines like Landscape ecology, Bioacoustics, Acoustic ecology, Biosemiotics, etc. The soundscape that is the object of this discipline, is defined as the acoustic context resulting from natural and human originated sounds and it is considered a relevant environmental proxy for animal and human life. With Soundscape Ecology Almo Farina means to offer a new cultural tool to investigate a partially explored component of the environmental complexity. For this he intends to set the principles of this new discipline, to delineate the epistemic domain in which to develop new ideas and theories and to describe the necessary integration with all the other ecological/environmental disciplines. The book is organized in ten chapters. The first two chapters delineate principles and theory of soundscape ecology. Chapters three and four describe the bioacoustic and communication theories. Chapter five is devoted to the human dimension of soundscape. Chapters six to eight regard the major sonic patterns like noise, choruses and vibrations. Chapter nine is devoted to the methods in soundscape ecology and finally chapter ten describes the application of the soundscape analysis.

Effects of Anthropogenic Noise on Animals
Author: Hans Slabbekoorn
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 1493985744
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
Over the past several years, many investigators interested in the effects of man-made sounds on animals have come to realize that there is much to gain from studying the broader literature on hearing sound and the effects of sound as well as data from the effects on humans. It has also become clear that knowledge of the effects of sound on one group of animals (e.g., birds or frogs) can guide studies on other groups (e.g., marine mammals or fishes) and that a review of all such studies together would be very useful to get a better understanding of the general principles and underlying cochlear and cognitive mechanisms that explain damage, disturbance, and deterrence across taxa. The purpose of this volume, then, is to provide a comprehensive review of the effects of man-made sounds on animals, with the goal of fulfilling two major needs. First, it was thought to be important to bring together data on sound and bioacoustics that have implications across all taxa (including humans) so that such information is generally available to the community of scholars interested in the effects of sound. This is done in Chaps. 2-5. Second, in Chaps. 6-10, the volume brings together what is known about the effects of sound on diverse vertebrate taxa so that investigators with interests in specific groups can learn from the data and experimental approaches from other species. Put another way, having an overview of the similarities and discrepancies among various animal groups and insight into the “how and why” will benefit the overall conceptual understanding, applications in society, and all future research.
