Modeling Statistics of Fish Patchiness and Predicting Associated Influence on Statistics of Acoustic Echoes

Abstract

To accurately describe the statistics of acoustic echoes due to the presence of fish, especially in the case of a long-range active sonar. Toward this goal, fundamental advances in the understanding of fish behavior, especially in aggregations, will be made under conditions relevant to the echo statistics problem.
