Lidar target-strength measurements on Northeast Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus)
Abstract A linearly polarized green (532 nm) laser and a digital video camera were used to determine the reflectivity (R) and lidar (LIght Detection And Ranging) target strength (TS) of live mackerel by comparison with a standard calibration target. The measured reflectivity was 0.0141 ± 0.0005 when...
