Improving and Developing Predictive Backscatter Models of Fish
Abstract
The long-term goal of this program is to quantify, understand, and visualize how the biology of aquatic organisms interacts with the physics of sound to produce acoustic backscatter data. Research activities integrate backscatter model predictions with laboratory and field measurements and combines results in computer visualizations and animations. Understanding scattering processes enables accurate population abundance estimates and contributes to acoustic species identification.
