Source Array Support for Continuous Monitoring of Fish Population and Behavior by Instantaneous Continental-Shelf-Scale Imaging Using Ocean-Waveguide Acoustics
2006
Rynne, Ed | Gillette, David
The goal of this effort was to provide use of the Flextensional Sea Test (FST) Array assembled under the Office of Naval Research (ONR) Multistatic ASW Capability Enhancement Program (MACE) as the source of underwater sounds to support active bi-static sonar capabilities for monitoring fish populations and behaviors during a September/October 2006 sea test off the coast of Maine. That sea test will be designated here as the Gulf of Maine (GoM) sea test. As the FST array hardware already existed and was suitable for the bi-static, active fish monitoring procedure planned for the GoM test, the approach for SSC-SD participation was primarily to arrange shipment of the array and support hardware to the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute (WHOI), to install the system aboard R/V Endeavor as its operational-platform vessel, and to provide personnel for: installing the array-control equipment, operating and maintaining the installed transmission system, and removing the array-control equipment from the vessel after the sea test's end.
