Geographic Variations of Sound Channel Axis in the Global Ocean
Sound signals are used for imaging and communication in the ocean. Underwater sound speed has a minimum at a certain depth that forms a sound channel for long-range underwater sound propagation. The geographic variation of sound channel is crucial in uses of underwater sound in various environments …

SOFAR signal shaping : influence of topography and relative source depth
… depth of the source relative to the axis of the sound channel is investigated. Eight shot signals from five different sites near Cape Town were received at three widely spaced hydrophones at Ascension over a number of 4.4 Megametre lines. These signals show the effects of (1) sources at different …

THE EFFECT OF TROPICAL CYCLONE PASSAGE ON UNDERSEA ACOUSTIC PARAMETERS IN THE EAST CHINA SEA
… sonic layer depth, below layer gradient, deep sound channel axis, deep sound channel strength, and critical depth. Results show that all acoustic parameters, with the exception of below layer gradient, experience a response to tropical cyclone passage that is correlated with storm intensity. …

Acoustic mode coherence in the Arctic Ocean
The dual issues of modal decomposition for tonal sound fields and the temporal coherence of the modal amplitudes are investigated for the case of the central Arctic sound channel at very low frequencies (15-80 Hz). A detailed study of the Arctic modal structure for these frequencies reveals the …

Stochastic acoustic ray tracing with dynamically orthogonal equations
… to three idealized cases of stochastic sound-speed profiles (SSPs): constant-gradients, uncertain deep-sound channel, and a varied sonic layer depth. Through this implementation with non-Gaussian examples, we observe the ability to represent the stochastic ray trace field in a reduced …
