High-resolution characterization of seafloor sediments for modeling acoustic backscatter
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)
Quantitative information on fine-scale sediment inhomogeneity is extremely scarce and sorely needed for developing realistic volume scattering models. To address this deficiency, we present a novel approach for sediment ...
Attenuation of shear waves in near-surface sediments
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)
In situ measurement of compressional and shear speed and compressional attenuation in near-surface marine sediments is a well-developed technology but techniques required to measure shear attenuation have lagged behind. ...
Spatial variability of surficial shallow water sediment geoacoustic properties
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1986/06)
Variability of surficial sediment geoacoustic properties was determined from cores collected at eight shallow-water continental shelf regions in the U.S., Italy and Australia. Highly porous muds found in low energy ...
