Chirp Sonar Remote Sensing for Ripples DRI and SAX04

Abstract

The long-term research objective is to develop a cost effective technique for mapping the top 20 meters of sediment properties using acoustic remote sensing and recent developments in modeling the physics of sediments acoustics. The procedures for remotely estimating the physical and acoustic properties of sediments are tested using sediment properties from core data and insitu measurements.
