Seafloor Acoustic Properties, Test Bed Definition, Geologic Mapping and Sedimentary Processes Using AUV Technology

Abstract

Long term goals are to (1) to develop/improve inversion techniques for normal incidence sediment classification systems and remotely determine sediment physical and geoacoustic properties; (2) determine mechanisms responsible for scattering of high frequency energy.
