ALTRO backscatter

The data have been acquired with a Simrad EM710 multi beam echosounder hull-mounted on board the R/V URANIA in the framework of COCONET project to map the submerged landscape off shore Montenegro. The aim of the survey was to map benthic habitats on the continental shelf and slope, focusing on cold water corals occurrences.
