In April, 1981, NUSC participated in a multi-institutional Arctic Ocean experiment. The U.S. Navy participation in this experiment was to conduct acoustic propagation measurements over paths of nominally 200 and 400 nmi. This document represents a description of the experiment in general (FRAM) and the NUSC portion of the experiment (TRISTEN), together with some preliminary experimental results. More detailed results and analyses will be forthcoming by various authors in future reports using the data described herein. (Author)
