Yeah, they're the real deal. Hull mounted multi beam and probably towed portable drogue sonar running a grid pattern.
I like the sea level rise figures at -9200 and -9500 years B.P. Somebody's probably going to take a high-res sonar picture of my house in 100 years. What's left of it.
#4 son, who is silly enough to work @ weejee & associates, has an article on rusty aquariums coming out this fall in a rusty journal. Had to be pier and peer reviewed, too, also. You sillies could save yourselves a bundle in maintenance Ameros if you could train the critters to make do with freshwater. Could send you a copy if you like.

One of the funnier posts from teh Wkett that will stick in my brain forever is:“There’s something about a beautiful girl in a bikini and a virile dolphin that make me sad I’m not allowed into Sea World anymore”
We shut it off if they come around. #4 was out checking on a sewer outfall line when a pod of orcas came and surrounded their boat. The had to turn if off, and just drift for about 45 minutes. The orcas wanted to help but they didn't have up-to-date diver cards.
hey, if I'm in the water, anything to get along with a pod of orcas sounds A-OK to me

"Around 19,000 year B.P., when the land area of Europe was ~ 40% larger than it is now, a relatively abrupt global rise in sea-level took place, estimated to be of 125 ± 5 m,"
There must have been a hard and fast rule among the ancient Monument Builders Guilds that one must never clearly sign and date the work. Or perhaps there was a nice plaque, but it was stolen by teenagers who carved dickoglyphics into it and hung it up in their clubhouse.

You do- you have to be quiet. That's what the lady said.
Blue and Zip live in the Old Pueblo. And Cmdr is the only goddamn person of Norwegian descent that hates seafood .. imagine ! (although he did try some sushi recently with actual good salmon in it and liked it).
Not holding my breath, though. Fine. All your crabs are belong to me.

Come to the conference. We will host you and there will be good Vodka Gimlets.

There's gotta be a Jimmy Hoffa joke in here somewhere.

Sweet hi res bathymetric maps. We do some side scan sonar when inspecting submerged stuff, but those are toys the divers bring.

Well, at this rate, maybe 25 years.

Hey you kids, what about sonar fucking with marine mammals?

Unless you happen to be a zinc salesman.
They're only one level above a cad(mium).
you're really bringing the dork today! Nice!
"Around 19,000 year B.P., when the land area of Europe was ~ 40% larger than it is now, a relatively abrupt global rise in sea-level took place, estimated to be of 125 ± 5 m,"
And we're concerned about a rise of few feet!
Location, location, location.

You got prose all over my dick-joke, man.
I’m a bad person.

(Apropos of nothing) can somebody send me some blue crabs, goddamit? I miss crabbing with a primitive trashy chicken handline.
Fall crabbing is best.
At 5 am. You have to be quiet. Shhh. Also, crabs don't like Phil Collins.
There's an outside chance I'll be at the ECS meeting in Phoenix in Oct. Maybe I could bring some crabs for you and Blue.
Who does?
They really hate Phil Collins.
You do- you have to be quiet. That's what the lady said.
