Observing the Oceans Acoustically [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019 Acoustics play a central role in humankind’s interactions with the ocean and the life within. Passive listening to ocean “soundscapes” informs us about the physical and bio-acoustic environment from earthquakes to communication between fish. Active acoustic probing of the environment informs us about ocean topography, currents and temperature, and ...

Ocean Observation Technologies: A Review
Chinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering, 2020 Covering about three quarters of the surface area of the earth, the ocean is a critical source of sustenance, medicine, and commerce. However, such vast expanse in both surface area and depth, presents myriad observing challenges for researchers, such as
