The horizontal wavenumbers and modal depth functions are estimated by block sparse Bayesian learning (BSBL) for broadband signals received by a vertical line array in shallow-water waveguides. The dictionary matrix consists of multi-frequency modal depth functions derived from shooting methods given a large set of hypothetical horizontal wavenumbers. The dispersion relation for multi-frequency horizontal wavenumbers is also taken into account to generate the dictionary. In this dictionary, only a few of the entries are used to describe the pressure field. These entries represent the modal depth functions and associated wavenumbers. With the constraint of block sparsity, the BSBL approach is shown to retrieve the horizontal wavenumbers and corresponding modal depth functions with high precision, while a priori knowledge of sea bottom, moving source, and source locations is not needed. The performance is demonstrated by simulations and experimental data.

Monostatic Rayleigh Lidar is mainly used for the observation of the middle atmosphere temperature and vertical activity of gravity waves. It was thought that it could not be used for the study of the gravity waves horizontal activity. Through the area integration of gravity waves that vary with time and space, it is derived that the echo signal received by the Lidar contains the horizontal wavenumber information, which proves that the monostatic Rayleigh Lidar can realize the estimation of horizontal activity of gravity waves.

A primary driver of deep-ocean mixing is breaking of internal tides generated via interactions of barotropic tides with topography. It is important to understand how the energy conversion from barotropic to internal tides responds to global warming. Here we address this question by applying a linear model of internal tide generation to coupled global climate model simulations under a high carbon emission scenario.

Dispersion and multipath effects contribute to the complexity of the shallow water acoustic field. However, this complexity contains valuable information regarding both the waveguide and the acoustic source. The horizontal wavenumber and relative amplitude of the modes comprising the acoustic field are crucial pieces of information for addressing acoustic inversion problems in shallow water.

The prevalence of random scattering from a rough ocean surface increases with increasing χ=kh cos θ, where k is the acoustic wavenumber, h is the root-mean-square surface height, and θ is the incidence angle. Generally, when χ≫1, coherence between incident and surface-scattered fields is lost. However, such coherence may be recovered when χ≫1 by considering the frequency-difference autoproduct of the surface-scattered field, a quadratic product of complex fields at nearby frequencies.
