Abstract:Measurements of several acoustic scattering characteristics were made for a variety of different nekton. At-sea broadband high-frequency (100s to 1000s kHz) backscatter measurements were made on several species of myctophids and other types of pelagic nekton (e.g. fish, shrimp). Animals were caught in mid-water trawls off the coast of Oregon during the summer of 2012, and measurements were made on fresh specimens from multiple species. Both broadside (dorsal) and end-on (head/tail) measurements were recorded. … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
