Atlantis II Seamounts Mid-Frequency Ambient Noise and Signal Propagation

Abstract

We propose to measure and model the spatial structure and temporal fluctuation characteristics of mid-frequency (0.5-10 kHz) ambient noise and signal propagation in the North Atlantic on and in the vicinity of the Atlantis II Seamounts. Experimental data will be collected with a 2D-aperture, mid-frequency acoustic array and complementary environmental sensors. Acoustic source transmissions will be made from a ship-deployed source tow system. Experimental observations will be interpreted using in-situ environmental data, 3D bathymetry, and acoustic modeling. This abstract is publicly releasable.
