Описано применение акустического зондирования для исследования акустических характеристик верхнего слоя моря с использованием широкополосных остронаправленных инвертированных излучателей,устанавливаемых на дно. В основу метода положен принцип регистрации обратного рассеяния и отраженияот поверхности моря акустических импульсов с различной частотой, позволяющий одновременно измерятьрассеяние и поглощение звука и нелинейный акустический параметр морской воды. Многочастотное зондирование позволяет реализовать акустическую спектроскопию пузырьков в приповерхностных слоях моря,проводить оценку газосодержания и получать данные о спектре поверхностного волнения при различных состояниях моря вплоть до штормовых. Применение остронаправленных высокочастотных пучков ультразвукапозволяет разделить информацию о планктоне и пузырьках и определить с высоким пространственным разрешением структуру пузырьковых облаков, образующихся при обрушении ветровых волн, и структуру планктонных сообществ. Участие планктона в волновом движении в толще морской воды позволяет определитьпараметры внутренних волн спектр и распределение по амплитудам в различное время.This paper represents the application of acoustic probingfor the investigation of acoustical properties of the upperlayer of the sea using broadband narrow-beam invertedtransducers that are mounted on the sea bottom. Thismethod is based on the principle of the recording of thebackscattering and reflections of acoustic pulses of differentfrequencies from the sea surface. That simultaneouslyallows measuring scattering and absorption of the soundand non-linear acoustic parameter of seawater. Multifrequencyprobing allows performing acoustic spectroscopy ofbubbles in the near-surface layer of the sea, estimating gascontent, and obtaining data on the spectrum of the surfacewaves in various states of the sea up to a storm. Utilizationof the high-frequency narrow ultrasound beams allows us toseparate the information about plankton and bubbles and todetermine the structure of bubble clouds, created during thebreaking of wind waves, along with the structure of planktoncommunities with high spatial resolution. The participationof plankton in the wave motion in the seawater columnallows determining parameters of internal waves, such asspectrum and distribution of amplitudes at different times.

Taganrog Bay

Storm surges and wind waves are ones of the most important hydrological characteristics, which determine dynamics of the Sea of Azov. Extreme storm surges in Taganrog Bay and flooding in the Don Delta can be formed under the effect of strong western winds. In this work the sea level oscillations and wind waves in the Taganrog Bay were simulated by means of the coupled SWAN+ADCIRC numerical model, taking into account the flooding and drying mechanisms. The calculations were carried out on an unstructured mesh with high resolution. The wind and atmospheric pressure fields for the extreme storm from 20 to 28 of September, 2014 obtained from WRF regional atmospheric model were used as forcing. The analysis of simulation results showed the following. The western and northern parts of the Don Delta were the most flood-prone during the storm. The size of the flooded area of the Don Delta exceeded 50%. Interaction of storm surge and wind wave accelerated the flooding process, increased the size of the flooded area and led to the intensification of wind waves in the upper of Taganrog Bay due to the general rise of the sea level.

The Impact

The recurrence of extreme wind waves in the Kara Sea strongly influences the Arctic climate change. The period 2000–2010 is characterized by significant climate warming, a reduction of the sea ice in the Arctic. The main motivation of this research to assess the impact of climate change on storm activity over the past 39 years in the Kara Sea. The paper presents the analysis of wave climate and storm activity in the Kara Sea based on the results of numerical modeling. A wave model WAVEWATCH III is used to reconstruct wind wave fields for the period from 1979 to 2017. The maximum significant wave height (SWH) for the whole period amounts to 9.9 m. The average long-term SWH for the ice-free period does not exceed 1.3 m. A significant linear trend shows an increase in the storm wave frequency for the period from 1979 to 2017. It is shown that trends in the storm activity of the Kara Sea are primarily regulated by the ice. Analysis of the extreme storm events showed that the Pareto distribution is in the best agreement with the data. However, the extreme events with an SWH more than 6‒7 m deviate from the Pareto distribution.

Marine Applications

The SAR Doppler frequencies are directly related to the motion of the scatterers in the illuminated area and have already been used in marine applications to monitor moving water surfaces. Here we investigate the possibility of retrieving surface water velocity from SAR Doppler analysis in medium-size lakes. ENVISAT images of the test site (Lake Garda) are processed and the Doppler Centroid Anomaly technique is adopted. The resulting surface velocity maps are compared with the outputs of a hydrodynamic model specifically validated for the case study. Thermal images from MODIS Terra are used in support of the modeling results. The surface velocity retrieved from SAR is found to overestimate the numerical results and the existence of a bias is investigated. In marine applications, such bias is traditionally removed through Geophysical Model Functions (GMFs) by ascribing it to a fully developed wind waves spectrum. We found that such an assumption is not supported in our case study, due to the small-scale variations of topography and wind. The role of wind intensity and duration on the results from SAR is evaluated, and the inclusion of lake bathymetry and the SAR backscatter gradient is recommended for the future development of GMFs suitable for lake environments.
