Acoustic Monitoring of Flow Through the Strait of Gibraltar: Data Analysis and Interpretation

Abstract

Existing techniques do not begin to exploit the full potential of acoustic remote sensing methods to study ocean thermal structure and circulation. This research is intended to improve our understanding of acoustic propagation in shallow-to-intermediate depth environments and to extend tomographic techniques to ocean regimes in which acoustic propagation is more complex than the largely deep-water cases studied to date.
