Confronting Biodiversity Challenges in Marine Video Monitoring

Image
Introduction Our current generation is facing the challenges of climate change and global warming. The series of feedback events due to the constant degradation of the environment resulted in anthropogenic defaunation and declination in the quality of the entire ecosystem. For centuries, humans have been keeping a watch on species using various methods like drawings, writings and paintings. Then photographs and videos were introduced to study and track various species. The introduction of video tracking played an impactful role in studying marine biodiversity. Oceans cover 71% of the Earth, which is around 361 million sq km. Monitoring marine species has been a challenge for researchers for decades. Ocean provides a home to a wide range of species, some are even yet to be discovered. Video surveys are making things easy for the researchers. They have the capability to monitor underwater activities with much greater accuracy and precision. These surveys can search for species and monito

Introduction: A great example of human ingenuity and teamwork in space exploration is the International Space Station (ISS). It serves as a cutting-edge research facility, a representation of global collaboration, and the home of mankind in space. We will examine the significance of the ISS, its design and operation, the scientific advances made on board, the advantages it offers to mankind, and its function as a launching pad for further space travel in this blog post. The International Space Station (ISS) is a wonderful example of human ingenuity and global collaboration in space exploration. With the assistance of several countries and organizations, the International Orbit Station (ISS) was constructed in orbit as a state-of-the-art research center in a microgravity setting. It has inspired innovative studies in a variety of scientific fields. Additionally, it has strengthened cross-cultural connections, inspired youth, and promoted STEM education.  Both on Earth and in space, the
