Towards 3D SPM and turbidity mapping in the water column using optical remote sensing and multibeam sonar
Funder identifier: SR/L9/221 (Other contract id)
Principal funding codes: 4254 - STEREO III (Support to the Exploitation and Research in Earth Observation data)
Acronym: STURMAPSS
Period: December 2021 till May 2022
Status: Completed

Thesaurus terms Multibeam sonar; Remote sensing; Turbidity

This project builds on the TIMBERS projects and aims to finish what was foreseen in the 2 years the project ran. Additional (statistical) analyses will be executed to better understand the relationship between multibeam water column data and in-situ SPM data. Additionally, a paper will be drafted regarding the potential of multibeam sonars to map SPM/turbidity in 3D.
