Oceanographic and Acoustic Characteristics of the Dabob Bay Range

Abstract

The climatological, physical oceanographic, geologic and underwater acoustic characteristics of the Dabob Bay tracking range are described and quantified. These characteristics are intended to inform range users about the total range environmental subsystem. The environmental subsystem can constrain the proposed testing of systems and this report presents significant data for test planning development. These constraints result from the unique estuarine environment of the Dabob Bay and Hood Canal province.
