AUV Navigation Correction Based on Automated Multibeam Tile Matching

open access: yesSensors, 2022
Ocean science and hydroacoustic seafloor mapping rely on accurate navigation underwater. By exploiting terrain information provided by a multibeam echosounder system, it is possible to significantly improve map quality. This article presents an algorithm

A Method for Field Calibration of a Multibeam Echo Sounder [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The use of multibeam echo sounders (MBES) has grown more frequent in applications like seafloor imaging, fisheries, and habitat mapping. Calibration of these instruments is important for understanding and validating the performance of MBES.

Triblock Polymer Engineering Enables Hydration‐Rich, High‐Performance, Fouling‐Resistant Interfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A molecularly engineered triblock polymer (PHZ) rapidly reorganizes into a hydration‐rich interfacial layer on diverse surfaces, strongly suppressing hydrophobic attraction and fouling. The triblock polymer provides robust energy and steric barriers to oily foulants, enabling high‐performance antifouling at ultralow dosage.

Automatic Detection of Outliers in Multibeam Echo Sounding Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The data volumes produced by new generation multibeam systems are very large, especially for shallow water systems. Results from recent multibeam surveys indicate that the ratio of the field survey time, to the time used in interactive editing through ...

Automated Feature Extraction and Classification of Submerged Cultural Heritage Assets in the Puck Lagoon via Multisensor Remote Sensing

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a strong framework for the detection and classification of Submerged Cultural Heritage Assets (SCHA) in shallow marine environments using the integration of multibeam echosounder and airborne LiDAR bathymetry with object‐based image analysis and fuzzy logic–based classification.

Multibeam volume acoustic backscatter imagery and reverberation measurements in the Northeastern Gulf of Mexico [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Multibeam volume acoustic backscatterimagery and reverberation measurements are derived from data collected in 200-m-deep waters in the northeastern Gulf of Mexico, with the Toroidal Volume Search Sonar (TVSS), a 68-kHz cylindrical sonar operated by the ...

Combining multibeam and single beam echosounders for quantifying gas bubble release from the seafloor

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine gas bubble release is a worldwide phenomenon that impacts the local marine ecosystem and contributes to carbon fluxes with respect to global warming. It is still challenging to assess gas flow for large seep areas (tens of km2), but recent advances in calibrating and processing multibeam echosounder (MBES) data make this problem ...

Developing an acceptance test for non-hydrographic airborne bathymetric lidar data application to NOAA charts in shallow waters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Hydrographic data of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration are typically acquired using sonar systems, with a small percent acquired via airborne lidar bathymetry for nearshore areas.

Reinforcement Learning Enabled Nanophotonic Devices

open access: yesLaser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
A reinforcement learning algorithm is used to design photonic devices. The method creates metagratings and grating couplers that efficiently control both the direction and polarization of light. Further, a reinforcement learning approach is used to design in‐plane integrated photonic devices. This approach paves the way for advanced photonic components
