고주파를 이용한 해저면 후방산란강도를 진해 해군사관학교 내의 실험해역에서 측정하였다. 측정된 후방산란강도를 수평입사각의 함수로 나타낸 후 Jackson 모델과 비교, 분석하였다. 해저면 구성성분을 파악하기 위해 다이버에 의해 코어링이 채취되었으며, 해저면 환경파라메터들은 Hamilton 모델에 의해 산출되었다. 분석 결과, 해저면이 거칠 경우 고주파 해저면 후방산란강도는 퇴적층 내부의 체적산란강도 보다 해저면 거칠기에 의한 산란의 영향을 많이 받는 것을 알 수 있었다.

연안역의 천해 해저면에 설치된 ADCP(Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler, 300kHz, 1200kHz)를 이용, 천해에서 체적 산란강도(volume scattering strength) 수직분포의 시간적인 변동 특성을 알아보았다. 수심 85m와 113m에서 ADCP로 측정한 산란강도의 일주기 변동성은 동물플랑크톤(zooplankton)으로 추측되는 산란체의 일주기 수직 이동(daily vertical migration)의 원인으로 추정되었다. 그러나 수심 20m의 천해에서 관측된 산란강도의 시변동성은 경험적 직교 함수(Empirical Orthogonal Function, EOF) 분석 결과 해저면 부근의 변화가 천해 체적 산란의 변동성에 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다.

Measurements of bottom backscattering strengths in a frequency range of 6-14 kHz were made on the shallow water off the southern Gyeonggi Bay in Yellow Sea in May 2013, as part of the KIOST-HYU joint acoustics experiment. Geological surveys for the experimental area were performed using multi-beam echo sounder, sparker system, and grab sampling to investigate the bottom topography, sub-bottom profile and composition of surficial sediment, respectively. In this paper, the backscattering strengths as a function of grazing angle (in range of $28^{\circ}{\sim}69^{\circ}$) were estimated and compared to the predictions obtained by Lambert's law and APL-UW scattering model. Finally, the effects of geoacoustic parameters corresponding to the experimental area on the backscattering strengths are discussed.

Measurements of backscattered intensity were made over a shallow water using 300 ㎑and 1200 ㎑ bottom mounted ADCP (Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler) to determine the temporal variability of vertical distribution of high-frequency volume scattering strength (Sv). The variability of Sv in relatively deep water column(85 m and 113 m was due to the daily vertical migration, probably of larger zooplankton. However it was not found with 1200㎑ data at shallow water column. From the empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis using 1200㎑ data, the vertical distribution of the first mode eigenvectors of Sv is characterized by the presence of the maximum values near the bottom of the water.

Sound in the ocean is scattered by inhomogeneities of many different kinds, such as the sea surface, the sea bottom, or the randomly distributed bubble layer and school of fish. The total sum of the scattered signals from these scatterers is called reverberation. In order to simulate the reverberation signal precisely, combination of a propagation model with proper scattering models, corresponding to each scattering mechanism, is required. In this article, we develop a reverberation model based on the ray theory easily combined with the existing scattering models. Developed reverberation model uses (1) Chapman-Harris empirical formula and APL-UW model/SSA model for the sea surface scattering. For the sea bottom scattering, it uses (2) Lambert's law and APL-UW model/SSA model. To verify our developed reverberation model, we compare our results with those in Ellis' article and 2006 reverberation workshop. This verified reverberation model SNURM is used to simulate reverberation signal for the neighboring seas of South Korea at mid frequency and the results from model are compared with experimental data in time domain. Through comparison between experiment data and model results, the features of reverberation signal dependent on environment of each sea is investigated and this analysis leads us to select an appropriate scattering function for each area of interest.
