Shallow Water Mid-Frequency Research and FY06 Experiment

Abstract

To Understand mid-frequency (1-10 kHz) acoustics in shallow waters through measurements and modeling, including propagation, reflection, and forward- and backscatter as well as reverberation. The top-level goals of this effort are to understand what are the important environmental processes, which impact mid-frequency sonar performances in shallow water environments; and to develop means to efficiently collect those environmental data.
