Ocean Remote Sensing Using Ambient Noise

Abstract

The PI will perform research to understand the basic physics of low-frequency sound propagation in the ocean, and the effects of environmental variability on signal stability and coherence, including the fundamental limits to signal processing imposed by ocean variability to enable advanced signal processing techniques, including matched field processing and other adaptive array processing methods. particularly the process by which an approximation to the transient Green’s function G(xA|xB, t) between locations xA and xB is estimated by cross-correlating records of ambient noise measured at xA and xB. In that context, the objective is to investigate the limitations of NI for remote sensing applications in a variety of ocean environments.
