Zusammenfassung:	Detection of hydrocarbon bubbles in water using Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) to survey shallow water environments for the detection of surface hydrocarbon bubbles therein using LIDAR for the purposes of hydrocarbon exploration and/or brownfield remediation. Embodiments include a method of deploying an airborne LIDAR system configured to detect surface hydrocarbon bubbles in a shallow water environment, the LIDAR system accounting for a bubble volume scattering coefficient; and surveying, using the LIDAR system, the shallow water environment to detect surface hydrocarbon bubbles therein.
