The physical characteristics are compared between shallow and deep water, in physics and acoustics, respectively. There is a specific sound speed profile in deep water, which is different from which in shallow water, resulting in different sound propagation law between them. In this paper, the sound field distributions are simulated under respective typical sound speed profile. The color figures of sound intensity are obtained, in which the horizontal ordinate is distance, and the vertical ordinate is depth. Then we can get some important characteristics of sound propagation. The results show that the seabed boundary is an important influence on sound propagation in shallow water, and sound propagation loss in deep water convergent zone is visibly less than which in spherical wave spreading. We can realize the remote probing using the acoustic phenomenon.
