Habitat Mapping
Detailed Description
Equipped with a multibeam bathymetric system and acoustic Doppler current profiler, the research vessel Lucien Brush was deployed to make comprehensive maps of the potential spawning area. In order to collect precise location data, a base station is set-up within view of the area to be mapped. Luckily, a sandbar was still peaking above the river’s surface.
