Abstract(s)

Among the existing panoply of instrumentation for Rapid Environmental Assessment (REA), underwater unmanned vehicles, satellite remote sensing and oceanographic drifters attract particular attention. In the last years, there has been a growing interest in coupling purely oceanographic surveys and acoustic measurements, in order to provide a final environmental image that is not only oceanographically consistent but also acoustically coherent for the area and period of interest. Thus, the usage of remote acoustic equipment is becoming an integrand part of the REA equipment list. One of the major characteristics of REA equipment is its unique capability for remote, often unsupervised, operation and compactness.
