Abstract

Seabed geodiversity comprises abiotic seabed structures and functions that form valuable natural resources, foundation for benthic habitats and marine ecosystems, and requires knowledge based, sustainable management. Geomorphological mapping involves delineation of surface features based on form, material composition and formative processes. We present an approach that applies methods of scale analysis and geomorphometric classification to characterize seabed morphology and interpretation of geomorphic units in a dynamic and complex marine meander bend. Seabed morphology was delineated using the morphometry as template supported by the DEM and associated surface derivatives. The seabed morphology served as input to an interpretation of geomorphic units applying a fluvial classification scheme in channelized marine settings. We demonstrate the potential of using a (semi-) automated morphometric classification scheme to support the characterization of high-resolution seabed morphology based on descriptive definitions and the potential of translating a fluvial classification scheme in channelized marine settings.

Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
