<p>Preliminary results are presented from an analysis of modeled mid-frequency sound propagation through a measured large-amplitude nonlinear internal solitary wave, and in-situ measurements of trains of nonlinear internal waves in northern South China Sea (SCS) as well. An acoustic propagation model based on ray theory was utilized to compute the transmission loss (TL) associated with passing the large depression measured internal waves. The TL was computed using the model considering (1) range-dependent and range-independent environmental scenario and (2) for different source and receiver depth configurations. This presentation will propose several interesting aspects of influence of internal waves on acoustic propagation, including "shadow zones", with or without eddy, etc.</p>

Abstract This paper presents a novel methodology applied to the observation of large-amplitude nonlinear internal waves in the upper ocean from an array of drifting instruments. The characteristics of the instrument used—an Autonomous Drifting Ocean Station with acoustic current profilers (ADOS-A), which is a drifting buoy with a 200-m-long thermistor chain, several profiling acoustic current meters, and a GPS—are discussed. The ADOS-A is lightweight and relatively inexpensive and can be deployed from aircrafts or from ships of opportunity. Three packets of large-amplitude, nonlinear internal waves were observed in the South China Sea. The speed and the direction of propagation of the waves are accurately determined and their characteristics and evolution over space and time scales comparable with those of the waves, as they propagate through the array, are discussed.
