High-frequency multibeam echo-sounder measurements of seafloor backscatter in shallow water: Part 1 - Data acquisition and processing.

Methods for processing multibeam echo-sounder (MBES) bathymetry data are well established, however, there is no universal and established approach to processing and interpretation of MBES backscatter data.
