Dolphin-inspired compact sonar for enhanced underwater acoustic imaging
A team of scientists from the National University of Singapore Tropical Marine Science Institute has developed a dolphin-inspired compact sonar with a novel echo processing method that allows for clearer visual imaging underwater compared to the conventional signal processing method of visualising sound echoes.
Moth wingtips an ‘acoustic decoy’ to thwart bat attack, scientists find
Wingtips of certain species of silkmoth are structured to reflect sound and throw off attackers, according to a new study.
Scientists Find Far Higher than Expected Rate of Underwater Glacial Melting
Tidewater glaciers, the massive rivers of ice that end in the ocean, may be melting underwater much faster than previously thought, according to a Rutgers co-authored study that used robotic kayaks. The findings, which challenge current frameworks for analyzing ocean-glacier interactions, have implications for the rest of the world’s tidewater glaciers, whose rapid retreat is contributing to sea-level rise.
