説明

Imagery to support a proposed VME based on high abundances of VME indicator taxa that fall within the range of previously registered VMEs. Video imagery was taken via ROV deployed by the dive team of M/Y Legend. Data on the relative percent cover of all VME indicator taxa was sourced and analyzed in the same manner as VMEs added to CCAMLR’s registry in 2018 (SC-CCAMLR-XXXVII), 2022 (SC-CCAMLR-41) and 2024 (SC-CCAMLR-43) using all data from WG-EMM-18/35, WG-EMM-22/34Rev1, WG-EMM-22/46Rev1, and WG-EMM-24/48Rev1 for a direct comparison. The present site clusters with previously registered VMEs.

地理的範囲

This dataset represents observations collected via ROV dives in the Southern Ocean, off the east coast of Cuverville Island (Errera Channel, Gerlache Strait, Western Antarctic Peninsula). Geographic coverage was inferred from the sample locations (62°36'51.5"W, 64°41'24.6"S). The region includes benthic habitats potentially corresponding to Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs) under CCAMLR criteria.

プロジェクトデータ

A novel collaboration between commercial submersible pilots, and their organizations, with Southern Benthics to provide footage of the seabed around Antarctica for the purposes of securing protection for VMEs, and for monitoring the health of those VMEs in the long term in the face of the climate crisis.

収集方法

Sampling was conducted by a Deep Trekker ROV with inbuilt 4K camera.

Study Extent Sampling was conducted opportunistically during a single event on 23 January 2025, off the east coast of Cuverville Island in the Southern Ocean (Errera Channel, Gerlache Strait, Western Antarctic Peninsula).
Quality Control All records were validated. Coordinates were converted into decimal latitude and decimal longitude and plotted on map to verify the actual geographical location corresponds to its locality. All scientific names were checked for typo and matched to the species information backbone of Worlds Register of Marine Species (http://marinespecies.org/) and LSID were assigned to each taxa as scientificNameID. Event date and time were converted into ISO 8601 and verified with the data providers.

Method step description:

  1. DaVinci Resolve 18.6 was used to combine separate files where necessary and for editing.
  2. Clean-up followed the same methodology as was used for analyzing the submersible footage for the successful nomination of VMEs in WG-EMM-22/46Rev1 to remove unusable sequences. For the Cuverville Is footage that meant the removal of any sequences where the ROV was too far from the wall, where the visibility was poor, too much water column filled the frame, when the ROV remained focused on one area and where the ROV was moving too fast to produce a clear frame for analysis. This is the footage deposited in Zenodo.
  3. Since kelp obscured the view of the benthos, further edits of footage were made where seaweed obscured more than 40% of the frame. Resultant length of footage for analysis was 14m49s.
  4. Footage was color graded within DaVinci Resolve 18.6.
  5. The analysis methodology also followed that which was used in WG-EMM-22/46Rev1. To compare the relative percent abundance of VME indicator taxa to that of non-VME taxa and bare substrate at the Cuverville Is site, frames were exported at regular intervals (40 secs) beginning at 0:00.
  6. The resulting series of images were then imported into the program PAPARA(ZZ)I (Marcon & Purser, 2017). Within this program images were further enhanced by adjusting brightness, contrast and gamma. As recommended by the authors, the usable area was then defined for each image allowing the exclusion of dark or blurred edges.
  7. Once images were prepared in this way, an array of 100 random points was overlayed. Each point in each image was assigned one of four designations: VME indicator taxa, non-VME taxa, seaweed or bare substrate.
  8. Analysis of individual frames (which can appear low quality) is always accompanied by careful observation of the original full length footage which shows a greater resolution of view, approach to analysis frame, often provides different angles and views that were edited out to reduce bias and can include macro closeup imagery that all help to ground truth the scoring of random points in any individual frame analysed.
