Applying a Multi-Method Framework to Analyze the Multispectral Acoustic Response of the Seafloor
Improvements to acoustic seafloor mapping systems have motivated novel marine geological and benthic biological research. Multibeam echosounders (MBES) have become a mainstream tool for acoustic remote sensing of the seabed.

Assessing the use of harmonized multisource backscatter data for thematic benthic habitat mapping
Legacy seabed mapping datasets are increasingly common as the need for detailed seabed information is recognized. Acoustic backscatter data from multibeam echosounders can be a useful surrogate for seabed properties and are commonly used for benthic ...

EVALUATING IMAGERY-DERIVED BATHYMETRY OF SEABED TOPOGRAPHY TO SUPPORT MARINE CADASTRE [PDF]
The Department of Survey and Mapping Malaysia has introduced marine cadastre system to register the rights, other valid interests therein and ownership of spatially determined parcels in the context of the marine environment yet the implementation of the

Acoustic estimates of methane gas flux from the seabed in a 6000 km2 region in the Northern Gulf of Mexico [PDF]
Seeps of free methane gas escaping the seabed can be found throughout the ocean basins. To understand the role of methane gas seeps in the global carbon cycle—including both gas added to the atmosphere and that which is dissolved and potentially oxidized

Accurate Mapping of an Extended Shell Bed Area in the North Sea with Multi-spectral Multibeam Backscatter Data [PDF]
The multibeam echosounder (MBES) has been widely used in seabed mapping, considering its ability to collect continuous and broad-scale seabed measurements efficiently.
