made targets that were resting on the sediment surface, or partially buried. These targets were placed inside the 3-dimensional reconfigurable dome measurement system that is shown in Figure 1. The footprint of the TOPAS beam pattern was centered in the dome measuring system. This hemispherical dome array was developed by NRL-SSC for use in its scattering programs, and is a unique measurement s...
