Perspectives on Geoacoustic Inversion of Ocean Bottom Reflectivity Data

Perspectives on Geoacoustic Inversion of Ocean Bottom Reflectivity Data

This paper focuses on acoustic reflectivity of the ocean bottom, and describes inversion of reflection data from an experiment designed to study the physical properties and structure of the ocean bottom. The formalism of Bayesian inference is reviewed briefly to establish an understanding of the app...
