Underwater Acoustic Imaging: Exact Geometric-Acoustics Treatment of the Image due to a Specular Reflector
Published 2009-09-23In underwater acoustic imaging, used to produce high-resolution images in turbid waters, a specular reflector in general produces a 'pseudoimage' of the receiving array, located on the reflecting surface; the pseudoimage ...Open AccessReport, Technical -
Engineering Ocean Nourishment
Published 2008-07-01The annual productivity of the ocean is limited by the availability of nutrients. Ocean Nourishment is the concept of purposefully introducing nutrients to the surface ocean to sequester carbon dioxide and increase the ...Open AccessConference paper -
