Summary Funding is requested to work with the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO) to build two mid-frequency acoustic transceiver arrays fashioned after the SIO 250-Hz transceiver moorings using the inductively controlled Distributed Vertical Line Array (DVLA) concept. The inductively coupled hydrophone module design is key because it makes the vertical array reconfigurable. Precise navigation and timing allow use of the instruments for acoustic remote sensing and advanced signal processing. These arrays will be used to further observational capabilities for the Northern Ocean Rapid Stratification Experiment (NORSE) DRI, and the CMRE (NATO) Nordic Recognized Environmental Picture Sea Trials.
