Acoustic Focusing in Shallow Water and Bubble Radiation Effects

Abstract

The long term goals are to (1) understand the role of wave-induced bubbles in the upper ocean boundary layer on the performance of underwater communications systems and ambient noise generation, (2) study the implications of focusing by surface gravity waves on Doppler sonar and acoustic communications systems in shallow and very shallow water, and (3) study the performance of acoustic vector sensors in very shallow water.
