Ocean eddies are typical oceanic mesoscale phenomena that are numerous, widely distributed and have high energy. Traditional eddy detection methods are mainly based on physical mechanisms with high accuracy. However, the large number of steps and complex parameter settings limit their applicability for most users. With the rapid development of deep learning techniques, object detection models have been broadly used in the fiel...

Microplastics (MPs) have been given considerable attention due to their risk to aquatic organisms in marine environments. In this study, MPs’ abundance and their potential correlation with environmental factors were investigated from 26 sites in Daya Bay, South China Sea. The results showed that the abundance of MPs was 1.8–13.87 items/L in surface water and 190–823 items/kg (dry weight) in sediment. The most abundant shape of...
