Abstract:

An additional year of data was acquired from the Wake Island hydrophone array for use in a wide variety of research topics including underground nuclear testing and studies of surface generated water column noise and ocean bottom noise. A new, efficient recording system was installed, tested and proven effective. Progress in dissertation research continued and some additional needed support and interest was provided by other agencies. mm
