Canada Basin Acoustic Propagation Experiment (CANAPE)-

Abstract

The supported symposium, scheduled for 29–30 August 2017, will be one of a pair of symposia at UC San Diego’s Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) to honor ocean science pioneer Professor Walter Munk on the occasion of his centennial birthday. The research symposia will highlight Professor Munk’s scientific legacy, bringing together veteran and younger scientists to review the past and to plan future scientific advances. This symposium will focus on the forward and inverse problems of acoustics in the ocean, with an emphasis on the future directions enabled by modern technology and societal needs. It will review the state of the science for a variety of settings: deep water, shallow water, high latitudes (ice), active, and passive. Speakers will use the past as a base for highlighting the problems that will be important in the next few decades of ocean acoustics and acoustical oceanography.
