The Influence of the Shallow Water Internal Tide on the Properties of Acoustic Signals

Abstract

The long-term goal is to quantitatively relate the temporal and spatial properties of shallow water acoustic signals to the physical processes that cause the temporal and spatial variability of the propagation channel. Address internal waves, tides, surface gravity wavefields and the heterogeneous ocean bottom/subbottom. Develop an ability to predict acoustic signal properties in the littoral.
