A short discussion on artifact creating conditions using multibeam bathymetric systems in a highly reflecting and smooth bottom
Abstract
Using multibeam system, artifact creating conditions are dominant when functioning in highly reflective and flat bottom areas. This simulation study manifests the causes responsible for creating such conditions which influence seafloor classification using bathymetry as well as seabottom backscatter models. The quantitative study results provide some insights into the extent of variability in the estimated seabottom spectral parameters under highly reflective and flat bottom conditions.
