Diel vertical migration and frontal variability of acoustic backscatter in the Balearic Sea
Acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCPs) use active sonar to measure current velocities by measuring the sound returned by scatterers (most often zooplankton) in the water column. The volume of scatterers, or echo intensity, has been used to measure the abundance of zooplankton and characterize di...
