Assessing the use of harmonized multisource backscatter data for thematic benthic habitat mapping

open access: yesScience of Remote Sensing, 2021
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 ...

Evolution of marine gravel dunes on the open shelf under multi-directional currents conditions

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
On inner continental shelves, a variety of coarse grained bedforms, such as gravel dunes, are shaped by hydrodynamic and morphodynamic processes. The formation and evolution of bedforms reflect a balance between seabed and coastal morphology, sediment ...
