Shelfbreak PRIMER Data Analysis: Acoustic Propagation and Ocean Tomography

Abstract

My long-term research goals are: 1. To understand the effects of meso to internal-wave-scale oceanographic processes on broadband sound transmissions in a coastal environment. Central to the understanding are the formulation of accurate forward relations and the quantification of the sensitivities and variability of the various acoustic quantities in relation to environmental differences and changes. 2. To develop high-resolution tomographic inverse techniques to measure the dynamics and kinematics of meso and finer-scale sound speed structure and ocean currents in coastal regions.
