CLASSIFYING TROPICAL CYCLONES WITH UNDERWATER SOUND
Theoretical and empirical evidence are synthesized to show that underwater acoustic sensing techniques may provide a valuable tool for measuring the wind speed and determining the destructive power of a hurricane.This is done by first developing a model for the acoustic intensity and mutual intensit...
