Examples of Carter Corrected DBDB-V Applied to Acoustic Propagation Modeling

Abstract

The purpose of this report is to describe the difference between nominal depth, as reported in the Naval Oceanographic Office's (NAVO's) Digital Bathymetry Data Base - Variable Resolution, Version 5.1 (DBDB-V v5.1) and true depth, which can be computed from nominal depth (Carter, 1980), and to show the impact of using nominal versus true depth on acoustic propagation estimates.
