Acoustic normal mode fluctuation statistics

Strong correlations between the environmental parameters and the internal wave field include an interesting sensitivity of the spread of an acoustic pulse to solitons near the receiver.

Statistics and modeling of internal waves

Detailed measurements of the ocean environment were made during the SW06 experiment. Non-linear internal wave (NLIW) events are reconstructed and analyzed to provide a statistical summary of important NLIW parameters, such as the NLIW propagation speed, direction, and amplitude.
