Mid to High Frequency (1-20 kHz) Acoustics at the Central Area, August 9-20 Applied Physics Laboratory University of Washington Peter H. Dahl, Jee Woong Choi Science measurement goal: measure contemporaneously MF acoustics and influencing environmental scales for ocean acoustic modeling and interpretation • Acoustic Measurements: • Bottom Loss (20log|R|) 1-20 kHz, Grazing Angles 10-80o • 3D Spatial Coherence (single and multi-paths) • Sea Surface (energy) Loss (single and multi-paths) • Sea Surface backscattering (11-60 kHz) • Environmental Measurements: • Directional Wave • MORAY 1+ acoustic receiving array aux data: air & sea temp and sea surface elevation

The road ahead Key data needs: ASIS buoy and wind speed (to replace Knorr IMET) [Graber & Williams] bottom strategraphy, layering and roughness + cores in the central area [Tang, Goff, Turget, Wang] Mooring CTD in the central area (from “forest mooring”) [Duda et al.] Later on, surface modeling (to extend observations) [Plant’s model] First (three) lines of inquiry: -Towards one geoacoustic model for the Central Site consistent over LF-MF experimental groups -3D spatial coherence: role of sea surface, (use of small slope approx.) kH >> 1 roughness -Spatial coherence of bottom forward reflection and relation to kH<< 1 roughness
