Gliders for passive acoustic monitoring of the oceanic environment

Ocean gliders are quiet, buoyancy-driven, long-endurance, profiling autonomous platforms.Gliders therefore possess unique advantages as platforms for Passive Acoustic Stress Formulas Monitoring (PAM) of the marine environment.In this paper, we review available glider platforms and passive acoustic monitoring systems, and explore current and potenti

Physiosemiosis in the semiotic spiral: A play of musement

A main question for semiotics today is how far does the paradigm for the action of signs, semiosis.extend.There is general agreement by now that semiosis extends at least as far as awareness or cognition occurs, which includes the entire domain of animal sign usage, or zoosemiosis.The open question today is whether semiotics is broader still, and o
