Fluvial Acoustic Tomography (FAT)
Two types of FAT is presented in the frequencies of 30 and 56 kHz to
monitor ranges less than 2 and 1 km, respectively.
The FAT provides the following parameters in rivers, estuaries, lakes
dam reservoirs and experimental flumes/tanks:
- Range/Depth Averaged Temperature
- Range/Depth Averaged Velocity
- Streamflow
- 2-D Temperature
- 2-D Velocity
- Salinity flux
- Tidal Bore
- AUV Positioning
Coastal Acoustic Tomography (CAT)
Two types of CAT is presented in the frequencies of 5 and 10 kHz to
monitor ranges less than 40 and 20 km, respectively.
The CAT provides the following parameters in wide rivers (>1 km)
coastal areas, seas, straits, and open oceans (< 40 km):
- Range/Depth Averaged Temperature
- Range/Depth Averaged Velocity
- Streamflow
- Tidal Currents Structure
- Nonlinear Tidal Currents
- Multi Subtidal
- Residual Currents
- Upwelling
- Internal Solitary Waves
- Vertical Temperature
- Profiling
- Vertical Current Profiling
- 2-D Temperature
- 2-D Current
- 3-D Temperature
- 3-D Current
- Coastal Front
- Flow of Ocean Shelf Zone
- AUV Localization
