Benthic habitat mapping in the Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary: Classification of side scan sonar data from survey HMPR-108-2002-01: Version I [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In September 2002, side scan sonar was used to image a portion of the sea floor in the northern OCNMS and was mosaiced at 1-meter pixel resolution using 100 kHz data collected at 300-meter range scale.

A tunable microwave absorption metamaterial inspired by moths evading bat detection

open access: yesInfoMat, EarlyView.
Electromagnetic radiation in the current environment has become complex and uncontrollable due to the advancement of wireless technology. Inspired by the moth surface cilia to bend and evade bat sonar detection, our work introduces a metamaterial incorporating broadband and tunable microwave absorption properties combined with deep learning algorithms.

Mobile Robot Range Sensing through Visual Looming [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
This article describes and evaluates visual looming as a monocular range sensing method for mobile robots. The looming algorithm is based on the relationship between the displacement of a camera relative to an object, and the resulting change in the size

Combining multibeam and single beam echosounders for quantifying gas bubble release from the seafloor

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine gas bubble release is a worldwide phenomenon that impacts the local marine ecosystem and contributes to carbon fluxes with respect to global warming. It is still challenging to assess gas flow for large seep areas (tens of km2), but recent advances in calibrating and processing multibeam echosounder (MBES) data make this problem ...

PNNL‐TUNAMELT: Toward automating the detection of interactions with marine energy devices using acoustic camera sensors

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Acoustic cameras, or imaging sonars, are often used to monitor marine energy sites in regions where the water is too dark or turbid for optical sensing. To do so more effectively, scientists are investigating automated detection methodologies to use on these data.
