OUTPOST SUNRISE Quick Look Report

Abstract

The Office of Naval Research ASW Environmental Acoustic Support (AEAS) Program sponsored a deep-ocean ambient noise measurement exercise in the eastern Pacific Ocean from 3 to 17 October 1988. The operation was designed to measure low frequency, wind generated, ambient noise mechanisms and levels in the ocean. The acoustic and supporting environmental data acquired can be analyzed to support design and development of new ASW systems and to validate the Ambient Noise Directionality Estimation System (ANDES) computer model. This report describes the equipment used to acquire the acoustic and environmental data and gives a quick look summary of the data acquired.
