Utilisation of Acoustics for Monitoring Local and Near-Field Mine Burial Processes: Proof-of-Concept

Abstract

The goal of the Proudman Oceanographic Laboratory's, POL, contribution to the Mine Countermeasures Programme, is to assess the applicability of recent developments in the application of acoustics, to the high resolution measurement of sediment processes, in the context of its utilisation for advancing our understanding of mine burial.
