... Sub-bottom propagation of very low frequency energy, · Bohom, surface, and volume reverberation at 50-1 00 Hz, · Matched-field processing, and accompanying descriptions of transmission characteristics, · Mesoscale environmental predictive models and accompanying acoustic models, · Tomography, a potential validation too! for the models and a technique for determining propagation characteristics over large areas, and · Fast acoustic performance prediction models.

... Prime examples of the operational Navy sharing with academic researchers are the ONR large ship building program, FLIP, the GEOSAT altimetry satellite, the ARGO/Medea remotely operated vehicle system, the large scale computer at Bay St. Louis, acoustic sources for the Heard Island Experiment, and use of the Integrated Undersea Surveillance System (lUSS)
