Low Frequency Wind Generated Ambient Noise Source Levels.

Abstract

This report consists of 10 viewgraphs and accompanying brief narrative for each viewgraph. Most of the wind-generated low frequency ambient noise data have been taken recently in the Southern Hemisphere Oceans. Burgess and Kewley have obtained corresponding source levels that have been implemented in the DUNES Ambient Noise Prediction Model. A survey is made of historical Northern Hemisphere ambient noise data to refine this estimation of source levels. These results are compared with other reported wind-generated noise source levels. Keywords: DUNES noise prediction model; Mathematical prediction; Acoustic data; Underwater acoustics; Ambient noise; Noise models; Wind-generated noise.
