Multiple Scattering of Underwater Sound by Clouds of Suspended Scatterers

Abstract

Improve our understanding of sound scattering by clouds of suspended objects (e.g. bubble clouds under breaking waves or ship wakes, fish, sediment grains, etc.) in the ocean to aid the identification, parameterization and discrimination of different types and to improve the modeling of oceanic acoustic environments.
