Effects of Internal Waves and Turbulent Fluctuations on Underwater Acoustic Propagation

A predictive methodology for received signal variation as a function of ocean perturbations is developed using a ray-based analysis of the effects of internal waves and ocean turbulence on long and short range underwater acoustic propagation. In the present formulation the eikonal equations are con...
