Abstrakt: Detailed seafloor environmental modeling of a moderately complex shallow water area, coupled with multitone matched-field processing, produced reliable and unambiguous source detection and tracking. Frequency averaging of the matched-field output sufficiently reduced sidelobe ambiguities. The seabed geologic model is a gridded database containing water depth, sediment grain size, sediment thickness, and acoustic basement type. Grid cells are squares of side length equal to 2 arc s. Software, separate from the geologic model, computes a geoacoustic model for any desired grid square. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
