Development and deployment of a pilot multilingual citizen- science mobile application for georeferenced marine catch observations in India
To enhance marine fishery advisory services in India, the Indian National Centre for Ocean Information Services (INCOIS) has launched ‘Fisheries Information Source Hub (FISH)’, a pilot multilingual citizen-science mobile application. This innovative approach empowers fishers to contribute georeferenced marine catch observations, generating high-frequency data crucial for species-specific fishery predictions. Initial deployment demonstrates significant success, with a 20-fold increase in data submissions.
Machine learning predictions for microbial eukaryotic plankton: implications from unevenly structured data
Machine learning offers a promising avenue for predicting eukaryotic microbial plankton diversity from environmental data; however, model generalizability remains a critical challenge. This study utilized XGBoost to model 18S rRNA gene Shannon Diversity Index (SDI) across the Mediterranean Sea, revealing significant limitations in transferability due to unevenly structured data. Performance declined substantially when tested against independent datasets, highlighting the need for spatially explicit evaluation and standardized protocols. Understanding these constraints is essential for robust ocean intelligence.
