Abstract :
This paper discusses a recently-developed computer retrieval technique for obtaining useful and reliable sound-speed profiles for applications in underwater acoustic modeling. In addition to selecting a model sound-speed profile, the technique also provides information on the horizontal and vertical characteristics of the sound-speed environment for any combination of temporal and spatial conditions as well as options for plotting, modifying, filtering or punching the selected sound speed profiles.
