This paper presents a robust trajectory-tracking control framework for underwater vehicles operating in a relative coordinate system. Unlike conventional methods that define trajectories in the world frame, the proposed approach formulates the contro...

With the increasing global demand for environmental protection and sustainable energy utilization, methanol, as a clean and renewable fuel, has become a research focus in the field of marine engines. However, its application in compression ignition e...

Marine sediments are a key component of aquatic ecosystems, linking diverse water uses, functions, and services. Chemical contamination of sediments is a global concern, with many jurisdictions striving to prevent future pollution and manage existing...

Offshore artificial islands are increasingly constructed along sedimentary coasts, yet their life-cycle impacts on adjacent beaches remain poorly quantified. Here we analyze 21 years of high-frequency satellite observations to assess how the building...

This paper studies the trajectory tracking control problem of an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). A robust model predictive control (MPC) framework based on the implementation of the receding horizon is implemented to address the challenges of un...

Learning-based equalizers for multicarrier communication systems have been widely studied over underwater acoustic (UWA) channels. In this article, a learning-based equalizer is utilized for single-carrier (SC) underwater acoustic communications. A c...

This study conducts a cyclostratigraphic analysis of the third member of the Eocene Shahejie Formation (Es3) in the Laizhou Bay Sag, Bohai Bay Basin, to investigate the influences of astronomically driven climate variations on sea-level changes, sedi...

As the global demand for seaweed products increases, resource managers, conservation groups, and other stakeholders strive to protect wild seaweed populations and the ecosystem services they provide from the damaging effects of over-harvesting. Ascop...

Shallow gas drilling in polar seas poses severe geological hazards, particularly unexpected eruptions that threaten platform safety and the marine environment. Accurate prediction of shallow gas occurrence and eruption risk is therefore essential for...

Ship License Plate Recognition (SLPR) technology serves as a fundamental technological foundation for maritime transportation management. Automated ship identification enhances both regulatory oversight and operational efficiency. However, current re...
