Inversion of Side Scan Sonar Motion and Posture in Seabed Geomorphology [PDF]
Side scan sonar measurement platform, affected by underwater environment and its own motion precision, inevitably has posture and motion disturbance, which greatly affects accuracy of geomorphic image formation.

An Enhanced Photogrammetric Approach for the Underwater Surveying of the Posidonia Meadow Structure in the Spiaggia Nera Area of Maratea [PDF]
The Posidonia oceanica meadows represent a fundamental biological indicator for the assessment of the marine ecosystem’s state of health. They also play an essential role in the conservation of coastal morphology.

Geomorphology of the Cook Islands, tropical South Pacific Ocean
We use the 2021 GEBCO grid to interpret the seabed geomorphology within the Cook Islands and adjacent areas. A complex geological history dating back to 125 Ma is manifested in a range of geoforms.

The Geomorphology and Nature of Seabed Seepage Processes [PDF]
The seafloor is mostly flat and smooth, reflecting sedimentation, the dominating seabed formation mode. In this communication, I shall focus on how vertical fluid flow, also called “seepage” may alter and imprint the seafloor geomorphology. Seafloor seeps occur globally, wherever a fluid (gas or liquid) resides in the sub-strata below the seafloor and ...

Interpretation of Seabed Geomorphology Based on Spatial Analysis of High-Density Airborne Laser Bathymetry [PDF]
Abstract Airborne laser bathymetric (ALB) systems rapidly acquire large, high-quality datasets via variable swath widths that are independent of water depth. Laser bathymetric survey tools have applicability in clear coastal (Case II) waters down to −70 meters depth.

A regional seabed geomorphological map over part of the southwestern pacific plate
We use the GEBCO global bathymetric product alongside other data sets, including magnetic anomaly and vertical gravity gradient, to interpret the seabed geomorphology of approximately 24.7 million km2 of the southwestern Pacific Plate at an effective ...
