1 SUT WA Research Night An introduction to acoustic seafloor observation and geostatistical data interpolation Elizabeth Mair BSc (GIS) Honours Curtin University
2 Contents Project Introduction Methodology Results Direction and discussion Questions
3 Northern Demersal Scalefish Fishery: Provide a cheap, low risk and long term monitoring tool for the Department of Fisheries, by: Mapping seafloor habitats Mapping water column biomass Determine relative demersal fish biomass Identify possible locations of significant fish biomass outside current areas of commercial effort Acoustic Project
4 Northern Demersal Scalefish Fishery: A single beam echosounder was attached to a fishing vessel to collect data at four frequencies to help map: Bathymetry Seafloor substrate (using backscatter) Water column biomass Acoustic Project
5 Study Area Depth from first trip (April 2012) 1 Week of data collection (locations blurred)
6 Study Area Depth from all trips to date and still collecting 18 months of data collection (locations blurred)
7 The Problem Interpolation of single-beam echo sounder bathymetry towards development of a continuous bathymetry grid for the offshore Kimberley region Bathymetry estimates from SBES (single-beam echo sounder) Interpolation between tracks Compilation of multiple data sources for broad-scale grid
8 Background: Geostatistics Data demands for broad-scale observation and continuous datasets Geostatistics vs other estimators (Nearest neighbour, inverse distance weighting, or triangulated irregular networks) Surface Interpolation Variogram modelling Kriging
9 Methodology SBES Data Exploratory Data Analysis Pre-processing (transform, filter) Interpolation Bathy metry Maps Asess Accuracy Exploratory data analysis Data transformation and filtering Variograms and interpolation Data comparison and compilation Error assessment
10 Percentage (% in 1m bins) Methodology: Pre-Processing Exploratory data analysis, spatial statistics Trend surface fitting Model residuals Statistical modelling and normal distributions Depth (m)
11 Percentage (% in 1m bins) Methodology: Pre-Processing Exploratory data analysis, spatial statistics Trend surface fitting Model residuals Statistical modelling and normal distributions Depth (m)
12 Percentage (% in 1m bins) Methodology: Pre-Processing Exploratory data analysis, spatial statistics Trend surface fitting Model residuals Statistical modelling and normal distributions Depth (m)
13 Methodology: Interpolation Variogram modelling of residuals Kriging interpolation with variogram input Cokriging with GA 250m grid
14 Methodology: Bathymetry Grids
15 Methodology: Bathymetry Grids
16 Results
17 Direction Extend interpolation of bathymetry to other properties; sediment composition, substrate depth, and / or water column biomass Continuous collection of SBES to contribute to baseline mapping Trial of techniques across new geographic extents
18 Summary Use of acoustic observation for broad-scale monitoring of the seabed Challenges of interpolating sparse samples to a continuous surface Potential to apply techniques to various marine habitat variables
