Abstract: We introduce a concept of underwater lidar based on compact Yb-doped high energy femtosecond fiber laser. It is assumed that simultaneous registration of scattered supercontinuum radiation, conical emission and fluorescence from filament in water may allow obtaining information about media pollution as well as about oil and gas presence.
