Quantitative Evaluations of the Effects of the Seabed Sediments on the Scattering and Propagation of Low to Medium Frequency Acoustic Energy in the Shallow Oceans

Abstract

The long-term goal is to quantitatively understand the physics of propagation, scattering, and attenuation of low to medium frequency (100-15000 Hz) acoustic waves in shallow waters and seabed sediments.
