Semiclassical Approximations and Predictability in Ocean Acoustics

Abstract

Our long-term goal is to improve our understanding of the physics of the forward scattering of underwater sound. Of particular interest is understanding limitations on the predictability of underwater sound fields. Improving our understanding of the mechanism(s) that contribute to the loss of predictability will lead to improved predictive models.
