Using MBES backscatter strength measurements for assessing a shallow water soft sediment environmentSiemes, K. (author), Snellen, M. (author), Simons, D.G. (author), Hermand, J.P. (author)Shallow water naval operations require detailed knowledge of the environmental characteristics. In this context, the BP’07 experiment was carried out in the Mediterranean Sea, south-east of Elba Island, in 2007. Measurements that were taken during this experiment employ a large set of sensors, thereby providing all information required to fully...conference paper 2009

Amiri-Simkooei, A. (author), Snellen, M. (author), Simons, D.G. (author)A method has recently been developed that employs multi-beam echo-sounder backscatter data to both obtain the number of sediment classes and discriminate between them by applying the Bayes decision rule to multiple hypotheses [ Simons and Snellen, Appl. Acoust. 70, 1258–1268 (2009) ]. In deep water, the number of scatter pixels within the beam...journal article 2009

Eleftherakis, D. (author), Amiri-Simkooei, A. (author), Snellen, M. (author), Simons, D.G. (author)Riverbed and seafloor sediment classification using acoustic remote sensing techniques is of high interest due to their high coverage capabilities at limited cost. This contribution presents the results of riverbed sediment classification using multi-beam echo-sounder data based on an empirical method. Two data sets are considered, both taken at...journal article 2012

Snellen, M. (author), Eleftherakis, S. (author), Amiri-Simkooei, A. (author), Koomans, R.L. (author), Simons, D.G. (author)This contribution presents sediment classification results derived from different sources of data collected at the Dordtse Kil river, the Netherlands. The first source is a multi-beam echo-sounder (MBES). The second source is measurements taken with a gamma-ray scintillation detector, i.e., the Multi-Element Detection System for Underwater...journal article 2013
