E. P., A. Rodriguez-Ramirez, S. Phinn, M. Gonzalez-Rivero, K. T. Brown, B. P. Neal, O. Hoegh-Guldberg, and S. Dove. 2017. Comparison of two photographic methodologies for collecting and analyzing the condition of coral reef ecosystems. Ecosphere 8(10):e01971. 10.1002/ecs2.1971 Abstract. Coral reefs are declining rapidly in response to unprecedented rates of environmental change. Rapid and scalable measurements of how benthic ecosystems are responding to these changes are critically important. Recent technological developments associated with the XL Catlin Seaview Survey have begun to provide high-resolution 1-m2 photographic quadrats of ~1.8–2 km of coral reefs at 10 m depth by using a semi-autonomous image collection SeaView II camera system (SVII). The rapid collection of images by SVII can result in images being taken at a variable distance (1–2 m) from the substrate as well as having natural light variability between images captured.

  • Diver Propulsion Vehicle Using MATLAB: a Survey
    IOSR Journal of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (IOSR-JEEE) e-ISSN: 2278-1676,p-ISSN: 2320-3331, Volume 14, Issue 3 Ser. I (May. – June. 2019), PP 08-14 www.iosrjournals.org Diver Propulsion Vehicle using MATLAB: A survey 1 2 3 Mr. Swanand U.Mane , Mr. Amol B. Sase , Mr. Ashish Prasad 1M.E(Embedded System), 2M.B.A (H.R), 3M.B.A (Finance) Corresponding Author: Mr. Swanand U.Mane Abstract: DPVs have recreational, scientific and military applications. A diver propulsion vehicle (DPV), also known as an underwater propulsion vehicle or underwater scooter is an item of equipment used by scuba divers and rebreather divers underwater to increase the range. Range is restricted by the amount of breathing gas that can be carried, the rate at which that breathing gas is consumed, and the battery power of the DPV. Though this has been the common methodology for many years, there is an emerging technique that involves developing algorithms with graphical tools. This improves development time, decreases programming complexity, and facilitates sharing of the design with co-workers. A leading software package that fits this mold is MATLAB, from The Math Works.[1]With the use of MATLAB software this paper will also be useful to understand and study different parameters for data analysis and to design efficient machine for recreational diving industry according to the commercial point of view. The basic optimization steps is minimizing DPV drag force to reduce power required.
