Excerpt

Jet probes are used for a variety of purposes (e.g., underwater cable routing, marine archaeology, coastal engineering) and are usually deployed in conjuction with other data-collection techniques such as hydrographic surveys (to determine water depths and map existing bottom conditions), subbottom profile survey (to identify near subbottom stratigraphy, 3–7 m depth), side-scan sonar survey (to identify morphological variations, and natural and man-made obstructions on the seabed), and vibratory coring (to acquire direct physical information of nearsurface sediments). Jet probe surveys acquire indirect physical information on subsurface lithology by surveying the thickness and stratigraphic layering of sedimentary covers on land or underwater. A jet of either air or water is used to penetrate the sand cover; the latter, however, is only applicable underwater (USACOE, 2002). …
