Seabed Variability and Its Influence on Acoustic Prediction Uncertainty

Abstract

The long term goal is to assess and characterize uncertainty in the tactical naval environment. The focus is on the contribution of seabed variability to uncertainty in sonar performance predictions. In littoral warfare, the seabed is often a controlling factor in sonar system performance.
