Sound Propagation through the Stochastic Ocean (Hardcover)

The ocean is opaque to electromagnetic radiation and transparent to
low frequency sound, so acoustical methodologies are an important
tool for sensing the undersea world. Stochastic sound-speed
fluctuations in the ocean, such as those caused by internal waves,
result in a progressive randomisation of acoustic signals as they
traverse the ocean environment. This signal randomisation imposes a
limit to the effectiveness of ocean acoustic remote sensing,
navigation and communication. Sound Propagation through the
Stochastic Ocean provides a comprehensive treatment of developments
in the field of statistical ocean acoustics over the last 35 years.
This will be of fundamental interest to oceanographers, marine
biologists, geophysicists, engineers, applied mathematicians, and
physicists. Key discoveries in topics such as internal waves, ray
chaos, Feynman path integrals, and mode transport theory are
addressed with illustrations from ocean observations. The topics
are presented at an approachable level for advanced students and
seasoned researchers alike.
