Abstract:

Bottom Loss Measurements were conducted during the PARKA II-A experiment in the vicinity occupied by RV FLIP for the main propagation loss measurements. The objective was to obtain low frequency 100-1000 Hz bottom loss values for use in models for predicting propagation loss. The location is approximately 300 miles north of the Hawaiian Islands. Data was obtained as a function of grazing angle and frequency. A single hydrophone was suspended at a depth of 11000 ft below the USNS SANDS while the RV CONRAD detonated explosives at depths of 500 and 11000 ft as range was varied. Because of the location for the measurements these results are compared to MGS AREA-V GROUP-V low frequency results. Author
