Description

“[The] physical insight and presentation in this volume made it a pleasure to read … I would heartily recommend this book to any researcher or graduate student working in shallow water acoustics. It presents an overview of a very active field from a fresh viewpoint, and with a fine feel for the basic physics of the medium. It is a book that is well worth the rather high price … I would encourage you to add it to your bookshelf.” Journal of the Acoustical Society of America Contents: Shallow Water as an Acoustic Medium  – Fundamentals of Sound Propagation  – Approximate Methods and Approaches in Shallow Water Acoustics  – Sound Field in Shallow Water with Random Inhomogeneities  – Acoustic Experiment in Shallow Water  – Long Range Propagation in Acoustic Monitoring  – Ambient Noise in Shallow Water  – Wave Scattering by Regular Object in Shallow Water
