Marine Physical Laboratory Program in Acoustics and the Ocean Environment.

Abstract

The Marine Physical Laboratory conducted a diverse program of investigations in the field of acoustics, both in the water and on the seafloor. The results have provided a better understanding of the effects of the ocean and its interfaces on the generation, propagation, and applications of acoustic energy, with specific application to problems of Navy interest. In addition, they have contributed toward increased knowledge in other aspects of marine science: geology, biology, chemistry, and physical oceanography. The research work is listed in project summaries.
