Shallow Water Acoustics

"[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
