- Statement
- Assessed through acoustic remote sensing (multibeam bathymetry and backscatter) and ground-truthing (grab samples and visual observations), following a risk-based monitoring design along pre-defined transects and boxes since 2015, with full-coverage surveys in two selected gravel zones since 2014. Monitoring is coordinated by RBINS within the EU DG ENV technical group TG Seabed. Multibeam echosounder (bathymetry and backscatter); Van Veen grab/boxcorer ground-truth sampling. GIS-based spatial and backscatter classification analysis to delineate broad-scale habitat types and gravel beds.
