The Green’s function (GF) directly eases the efficient computation for acoustic radiation problems in shallow water with the use of the Helmholtz integral equation. The difficulty in solving the GF in shallow water lies in the need to consider the boundary effects. In this paper, a rigorous theoretical model of interactions between the spherical wave and the liquid boundary is established by Fourier transform. The accurate and adaptive GF for the acoustic problems in the Pekeris waveguide with lossy seabed is derived, which is based on the image source method (ISM) and wave acoustics. First, the spherical wave is decomposed into plane waves in different incident angles. Second, each plane wave is multiplied by the corresponding reflection coefficient to obtain the reflected sound field, and the field is superposed to obtain the reflected sound field of the spherical wave. Then, the sound field of all image sources and the physical source are summed to obtain the GF in the Pekeris waveguide. The results computed by this method are compared with the standard wavenumber integration method, which verifies the accuracy of the GF for the near- and far-field acoustic problems. The influence of seabed attenuation on modal interference patterns is analyzed.

AbstractShallow water acoustics provide a means for monitoring and surveillance of near-shore environments. This paper describes the current and future capabilities of the low- to high-frequency Hawaii Experimental Acoustics Range (HEAR) that was designed to facilitate a wide range of different shallow water acoustics experiments and allow researchers from various institutions to test various array components and configurations. HEAR is a portable facility that consists of multiple hydrophones (12‐16) cabled independently to a common central node. The design allows for variable array configurations and deployments in three modes: experimental (off boats and piers), autonomous, and cabled. An application of HEAR is illustrated by the results from a deployment at Makai Research Pier, Oahu, Hawaii. In this deployment, HEAR was configured as a long-baseline range of two volumetric subarrays to study passive acoustic tracking capabilities in a shallow water environment.

Aldebarania arenitea (Astropectinidae; Asteroidea; Echinodermata) is described from the Rocky Point Member of the Maastrichtian (Upper Cretaceous) Peedee Formation of North Carolina. A turbulent, shallow-water environment is suggested by sedimentary features, a diverse marine fauna, and the morphology of Aldebarania. Aldebarania appears to be a partial ecological equivalent of living Astropecten and Luidia; however, phylogenetic relationships within the Astropectinidae are unstudied and the origin of similarities is unknown.

ABSTRACTTwenty-seven species assigned to 20 genera of trilobites are described from Feilaishi in Guizhou Province, the type section of the Shihtzupu Formation in S W China. They occur in association with a sparse graptolite fauna including Glyptograptus teretiusculus. Eleven taxa are recorded here for the first time. Much new morphological information is provided regarding previously known species and 3 lectotypes are selected. The trilobites are largely endemic and indicate a quiet and comparatively shallow water environment
