What is benthic habitat mapping, how is it accomplished, and how has that changed over
time? We query the published literature to answer these questions and synthesize the …

In this work, multibeam echosounder (MBES) and dual frequency sidescan sonar (SSS) data
are combined to map the shallow (5–100 m) benthic habitats of the National Marine Park of …

The ocean floor, its species and habitats are under pressure from various human activities.
Marine spatial planning and nature conservation aim to address these threats but require …

Exploration of the marine environment using underwater remote‐sensing methods is the
most reasonable method for investigating submerged archaeological heritage sites …

Up until the last ten years, remote sensing data and especially high-resolution satellite data
and airphotos were mainly used in shallow water mapping. The evolution and low cost of …

The seabed reflection amplitudes (SRAs) extracted from the sub-bottom profile have a
strong correlation with the types and physical properties of the seabed sediments. In this …

The aim of this study is to present the results of the first complete marine habitat mapping
through marine remote sensing techniques in Gyaros Island, a remote island in the …

As widely applicated in many underwater research fields, conventional side-scan sonars
require the sonar height to be at the seabed for geocoding seabed images. However, many …

Abstract Space remote sensing is powerful for conducting large-scale coral reefs benthic
habitat mapping (CRBHM). However, it is difficult because of the large spectral differences in …

Marine prairies play various crucial roles in marine ecosystems. The seagrasses that
compose them are one of the most important components engineering the marine coastal …
