  • Abstract
    New three-dimensional ray-acoustics expressions for the amplitude, eikonal, and phase along a ray path are derived. These expressions clearly indicate the numerical calculations that must be performed in order to evaluate these functions. The ocean medium is characterized by a three-dimensional random index of refraction which is decomposed into deterministic random components
