Report No. 6509 BBN Laboratories Incorporated
The underwater acoustic environment and sound propagation characteristics associated with six offshore oil drilling sites in the Alaskan Beaufort Sea were measured during the mid-August to mid-September 1985 and 1986 periods. Analysis of the field data nas resulted in a compilation of ambient noise...
