Colour reconstruction of underwater images [PDF]
, 2017 Objects look very different in the underwater environment compared to their appearance in sunlight. Images with correct colouring simplify the detection of underwater objects and may allow the use of visual SLAM algorithms developed for land-based robots

Abstract The marine soundscape, whether in coastal areas or the deepest ocean, in the tropics or at the poles, contains a myriad of sounds. Sounds may be grouped by their origin into geophony (e.g., wind, precipitation, waves, earthquakes, volcanoes, and ice), biophony (e.g., invertebrates, fishes, and marine mammals), and ...

Underwater noise from on-land blasting
JASA Express LettersThe production of underwater noise from on-land detonations is of concern, especially near sensitive marine mammal habitats. Despite this, there is a lack of public experimental data to analyze the characteristics of this type of noise. This paper quantifies noise from near-water land detonations, based on measurements obtained at Bentinck Island ...

On the generation of underwater ambient noise [PDF]
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1981 A general differential equation for noise generation can be derived from the continuity and momentum equations of fluid mechanisms for regions that include both mass and force sources. This equation is an inhomogeneous wave equation, and the solution is given in the form of surface integrals and volume integrals.
