The cooperative Frontal Air-Sea Interaction Experiment (FASINEX) was conducted in the subtropical convergence zone southwest of Bermuda from January to June 1986. The overall objective of the program was to investigate air-sea coupling in the vicinity of horizontal gradients associated with ocean fronts. The FASINEX field experiment was very successful and resulted in a rich and unique data set. The first goal of the analysis phase that followed the field work was a synthesis of results from...

This research focused on the relationship between the fair weather electric field and the sea breeze convergence zone at the KSC/CCAFS. Wind sensor and electric field mill data from the CaPE project were analyzed. This study did not reveal any clear indication of a higher electric field during sea breeze convergence. The two phenomena exist, but their interactions would appear to be weak. The expected interaction might be found in bigger data sets or through other types of analysis.

As the only low-latitude connection between ocean basins, the Indonesian Throughflow allows the direct transmission of heat and salinity between the Pacific and Indian Oceans.

Over multiple convergence zone propagation ranges the relative spreading loss per zone, although initially high, decreases with range. The other major component of propagation loss, attenuation, remains unchanged and eventually becomes greater than the rate of spreading loss. The range at which this crossover occurs is highly frequency dependent. At low frequencies the curtain effect occurs at long ranges; this allows sources or scatterers in the second convergence zone or beyond to impact the...

The horizontal ranges to convergence zones are determined for waters around Australia, using historical sound speed profile data and a computer model. A good correlation is found between sound speed at the surface and the convergence zone range, but with a different relationship between these parameters than observed in various Northern Hemisphere waters. The relationship between critical depth and surface sound speed for Australian waters is found to be similar to, although not identical with,...

We have the long term goals of understanding several aspects of passive and active sonar performance in the Philippine Sea when there is a robust environmental characterization of the sea floor and water column plus accurate source/receiver positions.

Convergence zone (CZ) prediction models are developed based on acoustic ray tracing theory as applied to linearly segmented sound velocity profiles (SVP). The models were developed into three calculator programs, two for CZ range predictions under different source and receiver depth conditions and one for CZ gain and transmission loss (TL) predictions. The performance of the models as programmed on Hewlitt-Packard HP-67 or HP-97 programmable calculators was compared to the Fast Asymptotic...

Although initially very high, the rate of spreading loss decreased rapidly with range, while the rate of attenuation remains constant for a given frequency. At increasing ranges the two loss curves cross, with attenuation becoming the dominant mechanism. This results in a 'curtain effect' due to rapidly increasing propagation loss. Examples are given of convergence zones obtainable as a function of frequency for various oceans and of the transition between near range and distant ambient noise....

In connection with a report on underwater sound propagation, several studies were made of the relative travel-time required for refracted rays of sound from a 50-foot source to reach a given point receiver. These follow at least four possible paths. The phase differences of such arrivals were studied over the range of the first zone for a 50-foot source and a 100-foot receiver. This led to a further study, the results of which are presented here in a technical memorandum as being perhaps timely...

The bistatic scattering characteristics of two geologically distinct abyssal hills located on the western flank of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, known as B' and C', are experimentally compared using data acquired with low-frequency towed-array systems at 1/2 convergence zone (33 km) stand-off. The comparison is significant because the abyssal hills span the two classes of elevated seafloor crust that cover the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. The highly lineated B' feature is representative of abyssal hills...

This note presents some ray computations to demonstrate how restricting the vertical angle at which rays are emitted at the source diminishes the width of the convergence zone. This is not a complete study and the note is not to be considered as a formal report. These computations were done to aide in evaluating a proposed sonar system. Since they shed some light on the relation between vertical beam width and zone width, the results are summarized here. The sound velocity profile is from the...

A coupled ocean mixed layer-acoustic model is evaluated in two dimensions at a line of stations in the northeast Pacific Ocean. The Oceanic Boundary Layer Model (OBL) is initialized using bathythermograph data acquired during the 1980 Storm Transfer and Response Experiment (STREX). The OBL model was used to predict a new thermal profile after integrating in time for 20 days. This was then compared with actual bathythermograph data taken 20 days later. Three cases were examined: initial, model,...

This report considers the cancellation of surface reverberation from the convergence zone (CZ) using an LMS multiple canceller structure. In CZ operations, this surface reverberation is often the limiting factor in the detection of low doppler targets. The multiple reference canceller approach is bistatic in that hydrophones spatially separated from the active sonar transmit/receive array are used as references to cancel the CZ surface reverberation. When the target is submerged below the CZ,...

Below 30 Hz the convergence zone energy can be smaller than the bottom reflected energy. Matched field simulations using a normal mode program give narrow, irregular correlation peaks for target vectors taken from the complete field. Target vectors computed using only modes representing convergence zone energy are then processed against the complete acoustic field. A much broader, smoother correlation function is obtained. Target vectors are then constructed that are equivalent to delay and sum...

This plan is for the conduct of marine geophysical surveys in support of the AN/SQS-26 sonars. Such surveys are needed immediately so that AN/SQS-26 sonars now programmed into new ship construction can be employed effectively in strategic ocean areas. The performance of a long range sonar system using surface duct, bottom bounce, and convergence zone propagation is critically dependent upon the oceanic properties that influence the detection path. The survey described in this plan primarily...

A dynamical theory is presented for two classes of hurricane spiral bands - inner and outer. Inner bands, which typically form within 500 km of the vortex center, can result from both potential vorticity (PV) wave breaking and vortex merger. PV wave breaking is found to occur when the PV field is asymmetric. This process ejects relatively high PV air down gradient into regions of relatively low PV air in the form of spiral bands. Vortex merger occurs when a vortex moves sufficiently dose to a...

Echoes were obtained over the 4000-yard range interval from 173.7 to 177.7 kiloyards for about 80 per cent of the transmissions. Unsuccessful transmissions could be attributed in general to high...

Volume reverberation caused by biological scatterers often limits the effectiveness of active sonar systems. For sonar system modes that utilize the refractive properties of the ocean, not only volume scattering strength but also propagation loss to the scatterers varies significantly because of the nonuniform and changing vertical distributions of scatterers. Because the scatterers migrate and concentrate close to the ocean surface at night, the effect of these variations is particularly...

The research work under this contract studied turbulence structures in the atmospheric boundary layer by focussing on microfronts. Microfronts are zones of sharp gradients which occur at the leading edge of wind gusts and upstream edges of thermals. The present work indicates that microfronts also result from convergence zones induced by horseshoe vortices and longitudinal roll vortices. The microfronts and their parent eddy structures account for the majority of the flux in the boundary layer,...

The correspondence of rays to full wave coherent states and the possibility of ionospheric convergence zones is discussed. Keywords: Raytracing, Ionosphere, Potential...

A multi-component model of the acoustic signal is used to discuss the relationship between a well-defined convergence-zone structure in transmission-loss measurements and array performance.
