The aim of the paper is to present results of preliminary experimental investigation using parametric echosounder in natural conditions for profiling the subbottom sediments in the Gulf of Gdansk. The ability to predict seabed properties: seafloor roughness, sub‐bottom structure and discrete scatterers laying on the seafloor or buried into sediments, from remotely sensed data is important especially in regions that need permanent monitoring. Precise determination of seabed structure or localisation of buried objects in the sand requires the use of a low frequency signal to penetrate the sediment and a narrow beam to provide high‐resolution data. Both requirements can be achieved with a parametric (nonlinear) technique. The special experimental setup has been arranged allowing penetration of bottom sediments as well as precise positioning and following a given route. Measurements were conducted exactly along given routes, for that geological profiles have bean taken by means of another method. It allow as ...
