Abstract :
Summary form only given. Data from a new shallow water ADCP is presented and discussed in detail. This new instrument bottom tracks and profiles in 10 cm water depth with a maximum range of 2 meters. Fixed position and moving platform data are presented that show the performance with depth cells as small as 1 cm. Data is presented fro several locations showing discharge measurements accuracy of +/-2% compared to other standard methods.
