Simultaneous Real Time Micro-Bathymetric Data From a Laser Line Scanning System and Acoustic Backscatter

Abstract

Since this proposal is meant to be integrated with the high frequency acoustics DRI, the goals of that program are essentially the goals of the research proposed here. That is, the program seeks to gain a fundamental understanding of the processes that are taking place in the high frequency scatter of sound from the sea bottom. This includes the physics, geology and biology of the interaction of sound with the sea floor.
