The Absorption Coefficient of Sound in Sea Water (Kilohertz Range).

Abstract

The report provides, in a form convenient for use as a ready reckoner on trials ships, a family of graphs of the one way transmission loss of sound in sea water under isovelocity conditions for the range of temperature 0C to 25C in steps of 5 and salinity values of 30, 33 and 36 ppt. Frequencies of 4 to 100 kHz are plotted. Tables of results up to 1000 kHz are provided.
