Shallow-Water Reverberation

Abstract

The long-term goals of this work are: to develop a practical model for predicting reverberation level (RL), echo-reverberation ratio and reverberation vertical coherence (RVC) in shallow water with sand and/or silt seabeds; to characterize seabottom geoacoustic parameters (sound speed and attenuation) and bottom scattering using high quality reverberation data in a frequency range of 100-3000Hz, and to reveal the physics of bottom scattering through analysis of shallow-water reverberation data.
