Validation of statistical estimation of transmission loss in the presence of geoacoustic inversion uncertainty
Multichannel array diagnosis using noise cross-correlation
© 2008 Acoustical Society of AmericaA practical application of noise cross-correlation for the diagnosis of a multichannel ocean hydrophone array is derived. Acoustic data were recorded on a horizontal line array on the New Jersey Shelf while Tropical Storm Ernesto passed through. Results obtained from active source measurements reveal that signals from several hydrophones, which were recorded on certain channels before the storm, are recorded on different channels after the storm. Noise cross-correlation of data recorded during the storm show when, and in what manner, these changes took place.Laura A. Brooks, Peter Gerstoft and David P. Knoble
Global P, PP, and PKP wave microseisms observed from distant storms
Microseisms are the continuous background vibrations of the Earth observed between earthquakes. Most microseism studies have focused on low frequency energy (0.05–0.5 Hz) propagating as surface waves, but in the microseism spectrum there is also energy that propagates as body waves (P-waves). Using array analysis on southern California stations we show that these body waves are generated in the ocean from distant storms and propagate deep within the Earth's mantle and core as P, PP and PKP phases. Comparisons with ocean wave hindcast data identify several distinct source regions in both the northern and southern hemispheres. Analyses of these body waves demonstrate that microseisms often have a strong P-wave component originating from distant locations. <br/
