Sponsor Office of Naval Research (Navy)
Summary As part of the Windy Islands Soliton Experiment (WISE), two acoustic propagation studies, one over the shallow shelf and one over the deep basin along the wise oceanographic mooring transect in the Northeast South China Sea (NE SCS) were carried out. The purpose of the shelf transmission was to study the physics of sound propagation through nonlinear, elevation and depression internal waves in shallow water, and to quantify the associated fluctuations in the sound intensity.
