ASW Research at WHOI and SIO

Abstract

This was a collaborative award to SIO and WHOI. Most of the funding supported cruises to the Philippine Sea and the North Pacific targeting ocean-acoustic bottom interaction, deep seafloor arrivals and bottom diffracted surface reflected acoustic paths. We observed bottom diffracted surface reflected arrivals in the Philippine Sea similar to arrivals observed in the North Pacific and were able to further constrain the conditions under which they occur.
