Environmental Guide for ASW in Eastern Canadian Shallow Waters. Part 1. An assessment of the State of Knowledge
This guide identifies and presents information on environmental parameters that can affect ASW operations in the shallow water areas off the east coast of Canada. The first part of the guide is an assessment of the state of knowledge on each of the parameters covered. The impact of the parameters on...
