Monitoring Near-Shore Bathymetry Using a Multi-Image Satellite-Derived Bathymetry Approach [PDF]
Two advanced survey systems for hydrographic surveying are multi-beam echsounder (MBES) and airborne lidar bathymetry (ALB). Compared to more traditional hydrographic surveying methods, these systems provide both highly accurate and a dense coverage of ...

Jets and Topography: Jet Transitions and the Impact on Transport in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current [PDF]
The Southern Ocean’s Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) naturally lends itself to interpretations using a zonally averaged framework. Yet, navigation around steep and complicated bathymetric obstacles suggests that local dynamics may be far removed from

Enabling Under Ice Glider Operations: A Backseat Driver Approach
ABSTRACT Polar Oceans are key locations for forcing global ocean circulation, influencing both global climate and biogeochemical cycles. Due to restricted access to these seasonally and perennially ice‐covered regions, these areas are severely undersampled.

Satellite-Derived Bathymetry a Reconnaissance Tool for Hydrography [PDF]
In some developing countries, the information available to plan and prioritise hydrographic surveys is typically based on visual inspection of existing nautical charts.

Mapping River Bed Topography in Whitewater Rapids Using Bathymetric LiDAR
ABSTRACT Bathymetric LiDAR captures river topography efficiently for clear and shallow water, but for mountain rivers, whitewater rapids still pose challenges. This study proposes a novel method to enable the extraction of bottom returns specifically in turbulent whitewater sections.

The first ultra-high resolution Digital Terrain Model of the shallow-water sector around Lipari Island (Aeolian Islands, Italy) [PDF]
Very high resolution bathymetric map obtained through multibeam echosounders data are crucial to generate accurate Digital Terrain Models from which the morphological setting of active volcanic areas can be analyzed in detail. Here we show and discuss

Software to Support Remote Sensing of River Discharge Based on Critical Flow Theory
ABSTRACT Water resource management requires accurate observations of streamflow but standard field methods for measuring river discharge (Q$$ Q $$) can be costly and hazardous for equipment and personnel. Remote sensing has become a viable alternative, but many image‐based techniques require field data for calibration, and depth and velocity can seldom

Beyond the Chart: The use of Satellite Remote Sensing for Assessing the Adequacy and Completeness Information [PDF]
Chart adequacy and completeness information consists of the symbols, abbreviations and warnings used to inform mariners of the level of confidence that should be given to data on a nautical chart.
