Improved Interpretation of Marine Sedimentary Environments Using Multi-Frequency Multibeam Backscatter Data

Backscatter mosaics based on a multi-frequency multibeam echosounder survey in the continental shelf setting of the North Sea were compared. The uncalibrated backscatter data were recorded with frequencies of 200, 400 and 600 kHz. The results showed that the seafloor appears mostly featureless in ac...
