Abstract

Measurements with seismic sensors on the sea-floor have been conducted in the Barent Sea, at places along the Norwegian coast, and in the North Sea. Results in terms of measured and simulated transmission loss as a function of frequency are presented from 2 of these areas. Also measured ambient noise spectrum levels from the same locations are shown.

Work was done while the author was with the Norwegian Defence Research Est. Div. U. (NDRE Div. U.), Horten, Norway, (1982).
