Acoustics at Station ALOHA: RAP Tomography

Abstract

ABSTRACT Using a mobile ship platform with an acoustic source transmitting to a fixed bottom hydrophone at the ALOHA Cabled Observatory, we will investigate the feasibility of “RAP tomography” (reliable acoustic path). This will allow the mapping of a spatially dependent integrated sound speed (temperature) over a 60-km diameter “teacup” volume of the ocean.
