the logarithmic measure of acoustic energy that a single fish reflects back to an echosounder, used to convert echo integration into fish density.

In fisheries science, fish target strength refers to the logarithmic measure of acoustic energy that a single fish reflects back to an echosounder, used to convert echo integration into fish density. This meaning comes from Foote (1987) in The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America.[1]
