Automated characterization and quantification of hydrocarbon seeps based on frontal illuminated video observations

Hydrocarbon releases, either natural or due to anthropogenic activities, are of major relevance for the marine environment. In this work we specify our approach to quantify these seeps by subsea imaging utilizing camera systems and frontal illumination setups on board remotely operated vehicles. Thi...
