Geoacoustic Physical Modeling: Volume-Roughness Interactions

Abstract

The long-term scientific objective of this research is to develop a geoacoustic model of the seafloor using laboratory studies for better understanding the physics of interaction between sound and marine sediments. The emphasis is on phenomena encountered in the interaction of high-frequency acoustic signals with littoral ocean bottoms.
