In this paper, the physiography, geomorphological features, and sedimentary bedforms of the offshore Egadi Islands (Italy) have been illustrated and mapped through an integrated analysis of high-resolution bathymetric, seismo-acoustic, and sedimentologic...

The use of satellite altimetry to recover marine gravity anomalies allows for the rapid acquisition of seafloor topography on a wide range of regional scales. Currently, the commonly used approaches for inverting seafloor topography have been focused on ...

The dense and deep water flow that leaves the Mediterranean Sea to the Atlantic flows through the upper and middle slope of the Gulf of Cádiz as a powerful bottom stream that models and interacts with bathymetry. The detailed analysis of underwater image...

Due to the nonlinearity of the deep-seafloor and complexity of the hydrodynamic force of novel structure platforms, realising an accurate motion mechanism modelling of a deep-sea landing vehicle (DSLV) is difficult. The support vector regression (SVR) mo...

In this study, we present a framework for seagrass habitat mapping in shallow (5?50 m) and very shallow water (0?5 m) by combining acoustic, optical data and Object-based Image classification. The combination of satellite multispectral images-acquired fr...

Boulders provide ecologically important hard grounds in shelf seas, and form protected habitats under the European Habitats Directive. Boulders on the seafloor can usually be recognized in backscatter mosaics due to a characteristic pattern of high backs...
