This book presents the state-of-the-art in acoustic exploration of the seabed and sub-seabed, from initial designs in the 1980s to commercial contracting and operation of the Acoustic Corer™ in the last decade. The Acoustic Corer™ is a high-definition commercial acoustic sub-bottom imaging system, producing an “acoustic core” within which sub-seabed sedimentary characteristics and discrete buried objects larger than 0.5 m can be identified and mapped. It makes use of the innovative JYG-cross design, inspired by seismic reflection and uses Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS) multi-angle scattering in and within the seabed to deliver unprecedented imagery. This book was written by the inventor of these concepts, a known specialist in seabed acoustics, with help from an experienced academic and author. It is intended first and foremost as a “how-to” guide for offshore industries looking at techniques to make the installation of different types of structures safe and efficient.。SpringerBriefs in Oceanography,2196-1212OceanographyOcean engineeringGeophysicsOceanographyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G25005Offshore Engineeringhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T23070Geophysics/Geodesyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G18009Oceanography.Ocean engineering.Geophysics.Oceanography.Offshore Engineering.Geophysics/Geodesy.550Guigné Jacques Yvesauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1060518Blondel Philippeauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910163986203321Acoustic Investigation of Complex Seabeds2514005UNINA
