Surface Currents and Shallow Water Bathymetry
An algorithm has been
developed to determine high resolution current and shallow water
bathymetry maps. The high resolution current can be detected in both
deep and shallow water, and the bathymetry in water less than 30 metres
in depth. These maps allow the investigation of morphodynamics and small
scale dynamic processes in coastal zones.
This example from Helgoland
in the North Sea of a high resolution bathymetry map over-plotted with
the surface current. The color-coding represents the water depth while
the arrows indicate the surface current speed and direction. Small scale
current eddies are well resolved.
