Traditional acoustic surveys to assess fish abundance can be limited by the surface blind zone and the seabed dead zone. The blind zone is the unobservable layer above the transducer and in its nearfield, and the dead zone is the layer closest to the seabed, where only a fraction of the backscatter from fish can be separated from that of the seabed … fish in the blind zone often react to an approaching vessel ... 1, record 3, English, - surface%20blind%20zone

L'ensemble des points situés à l'extérieur de la sphère (tête fémorale) dont les projections orthogonales se confondent avec celles des points situés à l'intérieur de la sphère constituent donc une zone "aveugle". A l'inverse, les points situés dans la sphère, trop près de la zone sous-chondrale, sont dans une zone dite "d'insécurité radiologique" puisqu'on peut les confondre avec les projections radiologiques des points situés à l'extérieur de la tête fémorale. 1, record 4, French, - zone%20aveugle
