Abstract:

This document describes a sequence of computer programs developed to predict long-range, low frequency monostatic or bistatic boundary reverberation from either the ocean surface or bottom. Presented are the theoretical foundations of the reverberation model, the numerical implementation of this theory, and a detailed description of actual program execution. A complete description of all inputs and outputs is included. Finally, examples illustrating the use of the sequence of programs are provided.
