However, applications of marine geomorphometry have now moved beyond the simple adoption of techniques developed for terrestrial studies, driven by the rise in the acquisition of high-resolution seafloor data and by the availability of user-friendly spatial analytical tools. Considering that the seafloor represents 71% of the surface of our planet, this is an important step towards understanding the Earth in its entirety.This volume is the first one dedicated to marine applications of geomorphometry. It showcases studies addressing the five steps of geomorphometry: sampling a surface (e.g., the seafloor), generating a Digital Terrain Model (DTM) from samples, preprocessing the DTM for subsequent analyses (e.g., correcting for errors and artifacts), deriving terrain attributes and/or extracting terrain features from the DTM, and using and explaining those terrain attributes and features in a given context. Throughout these studies, authors address a range of challenges and issues associated with applying geomorphometric techniques to the complex marine environment, including issues related to spatial scale, data quality, and linking seafloor topography with physical, geological, biological, and ecological processes. As marine geomorphometry becomes increasingly recognized as a sub-discipline of geomorphometry, this volume brings together a collection of research articles that reflect the types of studies that are helping to chart the course for the future of marine geomorphometry. 610 $ageomorphology 610 $asimulation 610 $aaccuracy 610 $aspatial scale 610 $amarine geomorphology 610 $asurface roughness 610 $aforage fish 610 $asatellite imagery 610 $athalwegs 610 $adigital elevation models (DEMs) 610 $aSeabed 2030 610 $aPacific sand lance 610 $aAcoustic applications 610 $apython 610 $aNippon Foundation/GEBCO 610 $aOceanic Shoals Australian Marine Park 610 $asubmarine topography 610 $amulti beam echosounder 610 $asedimentation 610 $abedforms 610 $acarbonate banks 610 $apolychaete 610 $acold-water coral 610 $amultiscale 610 $aautomated-mapping 610 $asemi-automated mapping 610 $asediment habitats 610 $aAtlantic Ocean 610 $aNorthwestern Australia 610 $arandom forest 610 $abenthic habitat mapping 610 $apaleoclimate 610 $asubmerged glacial bedforms 610 $aseafloor 610 $acurrents 610 $aCenomanian?Turonian 610 $aMultibeam bathymetry 610 $ageomorphometry 610 $aArcGIS 610 $afilter 610 $aseabed mapping 610 $acoral reefs 610 $aeastern Brazilian shelf 610 $adigital terrain analysis 610 $amultibeam spatial resolution 610 $amultibeam 610 $amultibeam sonar 610 $aTimor Sea 610 $aseafloor geomorphometry 610 $ashelf-slope-rise 610 $aterrain analysis 610 $aseafloor mapping technologies 610 $aspatial analysis 610 $aCanary Basin 610 $apaleobathymetry 610 $aBonaparte Basin 610 $apockmarks 610 $abenthic habitats 610 $aMalin Basin 610 $ageographic object-based image analysis 610 $aseafloor mapping standards and protocols 610 $aGIS 610 $aBering Sea 610 $aobject segmentation 610 $aBarents Sea 610 $abathymetry 610 $acarbonate mound 610 $aunderwater acoustics 610 $aintegration artefacts 610 $amultibeam echosounder 610 $adomes 610 $aglobal bathymetry 610 $aRandom Forests 610 $aNorth Sea 610 $aspatial prediction 610 $aGlaciated Margin 610 $amarine geology 610 $aimage segmentation 610 $ashelf morphology 610 $aAlaska 610 $apaleoceanography 610 $aconfidence 610 $aswath geometry 610 $avolcanoes 610 $adeglaciation 610 $aCretaceous 610 $aDEM 610 $ahabitat mapping 610 $amarine remote sensing 610 $areconstruction 610 $aacoustic-seismic profiling 610 $acanyons 700 $aDolan$b Margaret$4auth$01331066 702 $aLucieer$b Vanessa$4auth 702 $aLecours$b Vincent$4auth 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910346663203321 996 $aMarine Geomorphometry$93040093 997 $aUNINA
