Bubble Frequencies of Air Gun Sources

Abstract

Analysis of air gun signatures indicates that the signal is sufficiently repeatable to serve as a reliable, high-level, low-frequency sound source for at-sea experiments involving the device as a calibrated source. Development of computer programs for analyzing data was significant part of this study, and the resulting program library should be helpful in future work requiring evaluation of impulse-type sound sources.
