Description

This book focuses on�the�survey technology, post-processing technology, mapping technology and scientific application of�the�submarine topography and geomorphology in detail. High-resolution submarine geomorphology is a frontier branch of�marine geology and marine surveying and mapping, which provides a direct basis to�study the�seabed surface, to�understand the�tectonic movement and submarine evolution. In the�past two decades, high-resolution submarine geomorphology with�high-precision multi-beam echo sounding, side-scan sonar and sub-bottom profiler as the�major techniques, is developing very quickly and is one of�the�frontiers of�international marine science and technology. These high techniques promote the�traditional submarine geomorphology to�high-resolution and quantitative research. At present, high-resolution submarine geomorphology is widely used in the�delimitation of�the�continental shelf, the�international seabed resources survey, marine engineering and marine military applications. �In order to�facilitate readers to�understand how to�acquire and apply scientific research based on�submarine topographic data, it highlights the�combination of�theory, technology and scientific application. This book is useful as a reference for�professional and technical personnel in related fields and also as a textbook for�both graduate and undergraduate students as well.Typham this is the title: High-resolution Seafloor Survey and Applications
