High-Resolution Imaging of Particles and Plankton The LISST-Holo2 uses digital holography to capture holograms of particles and plankton in water without disturbing the sample. Processing of the hologram (known as reconstruction) in the LISST-Holo2 software...
PyOPIA (Python Ocean Particle Image Analysis) was introduced in 2023. It is an open-source Python library for combing through large amounts of particle image data collected by camera instruments such as LISST-Holo / LISST-Holo2, SilCam, UVP-6 and others....
There are several ocean science community-developed and supported software resources available for LISST and Hyper users interested in logging and/or processing data in other ways than supported by Sequoia’s standard software: PyOPIA PyOPIA is a...
Harmful algae. The phrasing itself almost seems it would be an oxymoron, like harmful carrots or something similar. But it is real: Given the right circumstances (light, nutrients), all algae can bloom and some of these can become Harmful Algae Blooms...
A melting pot Researchers in oceanography come to the field from all sides: physicists, biologists, geologists, geographers, hydrologists, mathematicians and many more. As a result, there can be a confounding number of terms for the same thing. An example...
