High-Frequency Scattering from the Sea Surface and Multiple Scattering from Bubbles
Abstract
The long-term goal is to develop a comprehensive understanding of (1) high-frequency scattering from the air-sea interface and its relation to the directional wave spectrum, including scattering from bubbles near this interface, and (2) of high-frequency acoustic propagation and scattering in bubbly media characteristic of the surf zone, and the near-surface acoustic environment. The ultimate goal is to obtain realistic, physics-based, predictive models for scattering and propagation phenomena. The objective is to conduct field studies in bistatic sea surface scattering and laboratory studies in multiple scattering from well-characterized bubble fields, and to interpret results from these experiments with physical models.
