Acoustical characteristics of the sea floor: experimental techniques and some examples from the Mediterranean Sea
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1974/11)The acoustical properties of the sea floor are primarily determined by the physical properties of the sediments, layering in the sediments, and the roughness of the bottom and sub-bottom. Over the last decade many cores ... -
Determination of velocity profile and sea bed characteristics from high frequency pulse propagation in a shallow water Mediterranean environment
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)Time-domain features of shallow water Mediterranean and Yellow Sea data are simulated for frequency band widths of 0.8 kHz with a centralfrequency of 3.2 kHz. Contour plots of pulse arrivals in time and depth are analyzed ... -
Geoacoustic inversion using multipath pulse shape
(NURC, 2008/09)Experimental data, measured in a shallow water region of the Mediterranean Sea, are used to show that the variation of received intensity with time is well described by existing expressions [Harrison and Nielsen, J. Acoust. ... -
High frequency acoustic observations of Mediterranean flow into the Black Sea
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1997)The physical behavior of Mediterranean flow entering the Black Sea through the Strat of Istanbul is described using a variety of high frequency acoustic systems. Because of the density difference between salty Meditermnean ... -
Magnetic, gravity and depth surveys in the Mediterranean and Red Sea
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1965/04)This report is a copy of a paper published in Nature, Vol. 204, 4965, 1964: 1245-1248 by T.D. Allan of this Centre, H. Charnock of this Centre at the time of the surveys but now of the National Institute of Oceanography, ... -
Oceanic-acoustic experiments at SACLANTCEN
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1971/12)Last year, at the Director's suggestion, a project in oceanicacoustics was set up at the Centre with scientists from at least 3 groups playing some part in the planning and execution of experiments. The p roject represents ... -
The hydrological characteristics of the waters exchanged between the eastern and the western basins of the Mediterranean
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1972/09)An analysis is done of hydrographic data obtained in 1965 and 1966 in the region of Tunis-Sicily-Malta. Vertical sections permit to follow the opposite spreadings of the surface water of Atlantic origin and the levantine ... -
The Strait of Sicily in relation to the general circulation of the Mediterranean
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1972/09) -
Validation of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck route propagation model in the Mediterranean Sea
(CMRE, 2019/06)Traffic route analysis and prediction are both crucial to maritime security. The ability to predict a vessel position in the future is essential to provide information on upcoming events. However, accurate prediction along ... -
Variable sea level and strait flows in the Mediterranean: a theoretical study of the response to meteorological forcing
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1983/05)Changes in atmospheric pressure over the Mediterranean are thought to account for a significant part of low frequency sea level changes and associated flow through the Strait of Gibraltar. However, Crepon's (1965) examination ...
