Description:

Sewage sludge in the ocean has been detected using a modified 200 KHz acoustic echo sounder. The three-dimensional distribution of suspended material and its rate of diffusion have been determined after digital processing of data. Increased biological activity is apparently associated with the presence of sewage sludge. The detection of internal waves in 30 m of water is reported.
