Time dependent seafloor acoustic backscatter (10-100kHz) [PDF]
A time-dependent model of the acoustic intensity backscattered by the seafloor is described and compared with data from a calibrated, vertically oriented, echo-sounder operating at 33 and 93 kHz.

Salt marshes are vulnerable to sea-level rise, sediment deficits, and storm impacts. To remain vertically resilient, salt marshes must accrete sediment at rates greater or equal to sea-level rise. Ice-rafted debris (IRD), sediment that has been moved and

Seabed Sediment Classification Using Spatial Statistical Characteristics
Conventional sediment classification methods based on Multibeam Echo System (MBES) data have low accuracy since the correlation between features and sediment has not been fully considered.

Blending single beam RoxAnn and multi-beam swathe QTC hydro-acoustic discrimination techniques for the Stonehaven area, Scotland, UK [PDF]
Surface properties of the seabed in a 180 km2 area of coastal waters (14-57 m depth) off northeast Scotland were mapped by hydro-acoustic discrimination using single and multi-beam echosounders linked to signal processing systems (RoxAnn for the single ...

Sediment classification in a Brazilian reservoir: Pros and cons of parametric low frequencies
Sediment is the main factor that limits the reservoir lifetime. Therefore, sediment classification is an essential tool for planning and operating reservoir management measures. There has been important development in the hydroacoustic classification of

Seabed Sediment Classification using Multifrequency Backscatter
Abstract Seabed sediment serves as an important metric for assessing marine ecosystems. Different sectors, including the development and utilization of marine resources, marine engineering, environmental research, marine fisheries, and maritime navigation safety, all depend on the classification and identification of different forms of ...
