| Definition | Instruments with directional acoustic transmitters and receivers fitted to an underwater platform that emit fan-shaped pulses down toward the seafloor across a wide angle perpendicular to the path of the platform through the water. Used for the classification of seafloor substrates and structures according to the intensity of signal return. Higher signal return intensities indicate harder substrates or structures, and vice versa. | ||
