Abstract:Large scale studies of underwater ambient noise during rainfall are important for assessing the ocean environment and enabling remote sensing of rainfall rates over the open ocean. In this study, we have evaluated approximately 3.5 years of acoustical and meteorological data recorded at the northeast Pacific Ocean continental shelf and slope. The acoustic data are recorded continuously at a sample rate of 64 kHz at 81 m depth and 581 m depth at the continental shelf and slope, respectively. The wind speeds and… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
