Abstract

A method includes receiving lidar data associated with remote sensing of moving water, and calibrating the lidar data, the calibration being based on one or more measurements contemporaneously measured with remote sensing of the moving water. The method includes refining the calibrated lidar data, the refinement being based on bubble detection associated with the moving water, where the refining includes discriminating between one or more signals associated with the bubble detection and one or more signals associated with non-bubble background detection. The method includes determining, from the refined lidar data, a bubble mask via feature detection based on depolarization ratio, and determining, based on the bubble mask, one or more bubble characteristics associated with the moving water.
