Application for Graduate Traineeship Award for Heriberto Garcia

Abstract

This award provides an opportunity for Heriberto (Herbie) Garcia to conduct research inOcean Acoustics at Northeastern University as a graduate student Research Assistant. Theresearch will include development of the passive ocean acoustic waveguide remote sensingapproach for instantaneous wide-area detection, localization and classification of significantbiological, geophysical and anthropogenic sound sources, as well as quantifying the temporalspatialcorrelations between these sound sources. He will also analyze the US-ONR andNorwegian-government funded Nordic Seas 2014 Experiment acoustic data set.The proposed research will help enhance Navy broadband passive sonar technology forinstantaneous wide-area detection, localization and classification of significant sound sourcesthat include man-made objects, such as submarines and other ocean vehicles, and distinguishthem from biological and geophysical processes occurring in the ocean.
