TABULATIONS OF SLANT RANGE VERSUS HORIZONTAL RANGE FOR BOTTOM-REFLECTED SOUND PATHS,

Abstract

When direct timing methods of determining distances are applied to underwater sound reflected from the ocean bottom, slant ranges are obtained instead of horizontal ranges. This report provides a set of tabulations for the conversion of bottom-reflected slant ranges to horizontal ranges for various water depths. The horizontal range is computed from 0 to 90.2 kiloyards for water depths ranging from 1000 to 3600 fathoms in 200-fathom intervals. (Author)
