“…Passive fathometer applications are a special case, corresponding to effectively 1-D (vertical) propagation, which have proven to be successful [Siderius et al, 2006[Siderius et al, , 2010Gerstoft et al, 2008]. There have also been several successful demonstrations at horizontal separations ranging from a few hundred meters [Fried et al, 2008;Brooks and Gerstoft, 2009;Fried et al, 2013;Lani et al, 2013] to 3.5 km [Roux et al, 2004;Sabra et al, 2013]. Additionally, Godin et al [2010] have successfully demonstrated the feasibility of passive acoustic tomography by retreiving the sound speed from moored mid-ocean noise measurements with horizontal separations of 0.5 to 3.5 km.…”
