SW06 Shallow Water Acoustics Experiment

Abstract

The long term goal of our shallow water acoustics work is to understand the nature of low frequency (10-1500 Hz) acoustic propagation and scattering in shallow water when strong oceanic variability in the form of fronts, eddies, boundary layers, and internal waves is present. Our primary objective this year was to continue the analysis of the data set collected by the SW06 experiment, and model it with theory and numerical models. A secondary objective was to continue some of our other ongoing analyses in shallow water acoustics.
