Shallow Water Propagation

Abstract

Develop methods for propagation and coherence calculations in complex shallow water environments, determine their capabilities and accuracy, and apply them for modeling and understanding data. Treat propagation from narrowband and broadband sources over elastic and poro-elastic sediments, and incorporate realistic bathymetric, topographic, and geoacoustic variations. Analyze and interpret acoustic data, quantify effects of random environmental and experimental variability, and compare predictions of field statistics for intensity and coherence.
