Bayesian Ambient Noise Inversion for Geoacoustic Uncertainty Estimation: Final report

Bayesian Ambient Noise Inversion for Geoacoustic Uncertainty Estimation

Estimation of seabed geoacoustic parameters in shallow water by remote sensing remains a challenging task due to constraints on hardware, data collection and analysis, and cost of maritime surveys. This work focuses on the application of two techniques that might offer a solution to those constraints: the use of ambient noise to probe the seabed, and Bayesian inversion of these data to estimate...

Neural Direct Approaches for Geoacoustic Inversion

Broadband synthetic aperture geoacoustic inversion.

A typical geoacoustic inversion procedure involves powerful source transmissions received on a large-aperture receiver array. A more practical approach is to use a single moving source and/or receiver in a low signal to noise ratio (SNR) setting. This paper uses single-receiver, broadband, frequency coherent matched-field inversion and exploits coherently repeated transmissions to improve estim...

Low Frequency Geoacoustic Inversion Method

APPROACH Consider the simulated SW06 scenario with a “true” bottom consisting of 3 sediment layers (to­ taling 22m in depth extent – a medium thickness) where all three sediment layers are each defined by a linear sound-speed profile (and constant densities) all over a half-space (constant sound-speed and density) as seen in Fig. 1. For the inversion processing we shall (as in earlier work) ass...
