This work presents an effort to understand and characterize the role moisture content plays in how sound interacts with sand on the beach. This work is part of a larger project developing a numerical model of long-range (~3 km) atmospheric acoustic propagation in littoral or riverine environments with a near-shore acoustic source and on-shore receivers. Previous experiments have studied the effects of moisture content of sand samples taken from various distances from the water's edge of a man-made lake with an artificial beach. This works seeks to perform the same studies in natural coastal areas by recording moisture content on site via a moisture probe at several depths, collecting samples to determine gravimetric water content of a bulk sample, and conducting testing with an impedance tube. Samples will be collected at various distances from the shoreline in order to inform a related effort that seeks to capture the acoustic characteristics of the sandy beach for use numerical modeling. |
