Stochastic Modeling of Bottom Scattering in Shallow Water

Abstract

The objective of this research is to improve the accuracy and widen the regime of applicability of stochastic models for bottom acoustic scattering in shallow water. The primary scientific objective is to develop scattering approximations leading to realistic stochastic models for acoustic scattering by the sea floor and for acoustic penetration into the seafloor.
