Measuring the Spatial Distribution of Ripples Using a REMUS AUV

Abstract

The long term goal is to develop and apply new technology to make better measurements of the spatial distribution of bedforms during both energetic conditions with ripples that are in equilibrium with forcing and during quiescent conditions where ripples are a product of previous storms.
