Detailed Description
Conducting near-shore bathymetric surveys at Marconi Beach, Cape Cod National Seashore in Massachusetts. Bathymetry is the study of underwater depth of ocean floors or lake floors. By collecting data and plotting points on our beaches with cameras, survey equipment, and even a surf-capable autonomous surface vessel (ASV), scientists can learn more about the dynamic processes shaping our coasts.
