With the rapid development and widespread application of multibeam echo-sounding systems, large-scale and high-resolution seafloor topography can be efficiently acquired, enabling precise mapping of seabed terrain. However, due to complex oceanographic conditions, instrumental noise, and acoustic interferences, the acquired multibeam data often contain outliers that deviate from the true seafloor surface. These outliers can di...

Fatty acid desaturases (FADs) are rate-limiting enzymes for the biosynthesis of highly unsaturated fatty acids (HUFAs). As a new member of the FAD family, Fad6 and its roles remain unclear in various teleost fishes. In this study, we identified a fad6 gene from yellow catfish (yc fad6 ) and determined its spatiotemporal expression patterns and responses to different initial diets and nutritional status in yellow catfish. Our r...

Mesoscale eddies are energetic and swirling circulations that frequently occur in the open ocean. The effects of mesoscale eddies on the biogeochemical cycling of climate-relevant gases remain poorly constrained. We investigated the distribution and air-sea fluxes of CO 2 , methane, and five non–methane hydrocarbons (NMHCs) in an anticyclone eddy of Kuroshio Extension during September 2019. Within eddy core, intense stratifica...

Assessment of the natural frequency of the offshore wind turbine (OWT) system is a critical task in design to avoid resonance. The natural frequency of the monopile supported OWT may change during operation and needs to be calculated regularly. Conventional numerical methods separately model different components of the OWT system using various element types, which require tedious data manipulations and are inefficient to asses...
