ONR Graduate Traineeship Special Research Award in Ocean Acoustics Program for Daniel Michael Duane

Abstract

This award provides an opportunity for Daniel Duane to conduct research in Ocean Acoustics at MIT as a graduate student Research Assistant. The primary research goal will be to study and improve methods of remote sensing in an oceanwave guide using acoustic data" collected in the Nordic Seas from February through March of 2014. He will analyze several areas related to wide-area sensing, inclu""ding ambient noise, acoustic clutter, seafloor scattering, transmission, and statistical fluctuations. In addition, he will contribu"te to the planning and conducting of an upcoming field experiment in the Nordic Seas. The proposed research will help enhance the Na"vy~s capability for underwater detection, localization, and imaging. Daniel will be under the direct supervision of Prof. Nicholas M"akris in this research.
