Shallow Water Propagation and Surface Reverberation Modeling
The primary long term goals are to measure and model high frequency acoustic propagation and scattering near the sea surface. Processes of particular interest are scattering from surface gravity waves and the effect of whitecaps and bubble clouds on underwater acoustic communications. A secondary lo...

The primary long term goals are to measure and model high frequency acoustic propagation and scattering near the sea surface. Processes of particular interest are scattering from surface gravity waves and the effect of whitecaps and bubble clouds on underwater acoustic communications. A secondary long term goal is to exploit measurements of breaking wave noise to infer bubble cloud populations at the sea surface. These original goals have been augmented in 2013 to study ambient noise from glaciers in high latitude regions. Objectives for 2013 The overall program objectives are reproduced below for completeness. Program objectives specific to work in 2013 were to: (1) continue the work of Berry (1972) to deduce the form of surfaces from scattered sound and (2) to measure and analyze the underwater ambient noise marine terminating glaciers in high latitude regions.
