THIS GRANT IS CONTINUATION OF N00014-14-1-0247 Spatial Statistics of Deep-Water Ambient Noise; Dispersion Relations For Sound Waves and Shear Waves

Abstract

The PI will investigate 1) Ambient noise profiling in the deep ocean trenches using the Deep Sound systems. 2) Experimental and theoretical investigations of elastic wave propagation in a) fine-grained marine sediments (clays and silts) and b) bimodal sediments (sands with shell fragment inclusions). 3) Inversion of the subsurface, low frequency sound from a helicopter to recover the geo-acoustic properties of the seabed.
