A Mapping Method Fusing Forward-Looking Sonar and Side-Scan Sonar

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
In modern ocean exploration, forward-looking sonar (FLS) provides real-time 2D imaging of the seabed ahead, but its detection range is relatively limited.

MBES Seabed Sediment Classification Based on a Decision Fusion Method Using Deep Learning Model

Remote Sensing, 2022
High-precision habitat mapping can contribute to the identification and quantification of the human footprint on the seafloor. As a representative of seafloor habitats, seabed sediment classification is crucial for marine geological research, marine ...

Estimating the historical distribution, abundance and ecological contribution of Modiolus modiolus in Strangford Lough, Northern Ireland [PDF]

, 2016
Strangford Lough is a large sheltered marine inlet in Northern Ireland. It is also a designated Special Area of Conservation based partially on the presence of an extensive area of Modiolus modiolus (Linnaeus, 1758) biogenic reef.

SEABED TOPOGRAPHY MAPPING IN SANGIHE TALAUD WATERS USING MULTIBEAM ECHOSOUNDER [PDF]

Oseanika, 2020
The application of multibeam echosounder for seabed topography has been developing rapidly. Multibeam echosounder is a very efficient way to get a wide seabed topography coverage for each ping, so it can produce high-resolution seabed topography maps. These maps can be used as a reference for further investigation or exploration, for example geological

Stress‐Induced Melting Controlled Failure Mechanisms of Methane Hydrate

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We study methane hydrate via nanoindentation and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), finding its regional melting and mechanical properties, challenging existing views on hydrogen‐bonded crystals. Abstract Methane hydrate, a kind of nonstoichiometric crystalline, attracted worldwide attentions as a promising substitute energy. Its Dissociation is thought

Improving seabed substrate mapping with high-resolution bottom trawl data

Marine Environmental Research, 2023
Accurate seabed substrate maps are essential for marine management, as substrate is an important component of the habitat type and used as a proxy for the prevailing benthic community. The provision of substrate maps, however, is hampered by the excessive costs of at-sea observations and, consequently, the uncertainty associated with spatial models ...
