This book provides the only comprehensive source on how to translate our physical understanding of sound in the sea into mathematical formulas solvable by computers. The book includes practical guidelines for scientists and mathematicians needing to select and use the models, and shows them how the behaviour of sound can be modeled in a complex environment.
The book covers: the major advances in underwater acoustic modeling, a comprehensive summary of the models now available, new developments in shallow-water acoustics, and inverse acoustic sensing of the oceans.
