چکیده
The interference algorithm of the acoustic tomography of' the ocea.n i s discussed, In this method the synoptic inhomogeneities of the sound velocity field are restored by the perturbations in the intermode phase Merences. The hiermoile phase difference, in its turn, is determined by the measured space distribution of the intensity (the interference structure) of the acoustic field. The interference method is also applied for determining the vertical profiles of sound speed, density a.nd attennation coefficient in the bottom. The possibility of using this method is numerically analysed for natural ocean conditions.

متن کاملRange-dependent waveguide scattering model calibrated for bottom reverberation in a continental shelf environment.
An analytic model is developed for scattering from random inhomogeneities in range-dependent ocean waveguides using the Rayleigh-Born approximation to Green's theorem. The expected scattered intensity depends on statistical moments of fractional changes in compressibility and density, which scatter as monopoles and dipoles, respectively, and the coherence volume of the inhomogeneities. The mode...
متن کاملAcoustic Wave Backscattering in a Random Inhomogeneous Ocean Sediment
The backscattering of sound by inhomogeneities of the ocean sediment may provide a remarkable effect on underwater acoustic wave propagation. It may also be used as a means of remotely estimating complicated sediment properties. In this paper, a theoretical model of acoustic waves backscattered from an inhomogeneous sediment is formulated based on the Born approximation. The model not only cont...

Indian Ocean is known as a source of moisture for southeast of Iran due to summer precipitation. In this study, in order to investigate the role of SST of Indian Ocean, and the convergence and divergence fields in the precipitation of southeast of Iran, precipitation data of five synoptic stations were used during 2000-2010, including Iranshahr, Khash, ChahBahar, Zabul, and Saravan. To investig...
