Abstract :
Radiowave propagation in the marine atmospheric boundary layer (MABL) remains a subject of research interest given the potential utility of the ducting propagation mechanism. Ducting propagation is highly dependent on atmospheric conditions, so that experiments that combine propagation measurements with detailed atmospheric characterization can offer opportunities for improved modeling of MABL effects on propagation in the future.
