Unified Description of Scattering and Propagation FY15

Abstract

The long-term goal of the research is to increase the physical understanding of acoustic propagation and scattering in continental shelf and slope environments in the 50-4000 Hz band. This includes both the physics of the seabed and the coupling to physical mechanisms in the water column in complex range-and azimuth-dependent littoral waveguides. To achieve these goals it is necessary to understand the deterministic and non-deterministic components of both the theoretical description and the measurement and analysis parts of the problem.
