Low-Frequency Sound Propagation in a Fluctuating Infinite Ocean. II

Abstract

An approximation method for calculating fluctuations due to internal waves in sound propagation in the ocean is outlined, including the effects of the sound channel. Results are presented in a simple form in which the geometrical optics limit is transparent.
