Reviews
'Underwater Acoustic Modeling and Simulation meets the highest standards of professional writing and scholarship. The book is thorough yet very readable. It belongs in libraries that serve a naval, geophysical or oceanographic clientele or any college or university serving the graduate applied physics or maths student.' - E-Streams 'This book is unique in combining theoretical, empirical, and computational models for underwater propagation, noise, and sonar operation. It will be a valuable resource to anyone engaged in underwater acoustic modeling and simulation, and I am pleased to recommend it.' - Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society '... Underwater Acoustic Modeling does an excellent job of introducing propagation, noise, and reverberation in the underwater environment. The author's style makes the book very readable, without compromising the breadth of coverage.' - The Industrial Physicist

...it is clear that significant effort has gone into adding contemporary material throughout the book. This is unique in combining theoretical, empiral and computational models for underwater propagation, noise and sonar operation. It will be a valuable resource to anyone engaged in underwater acoustic modeling and I am pleased to recommned it..
Author Information
Paul C. Etter has worked in the fields of ocean-atmosphere physics and environmental acoustics for the past thirty years, supporting federal and state agencies, academia and private industry. He received his BS degree in Physics and his MS degree in Oceanography at Texas A&M University. Mr. Etter served on active duty in the US Navy as an Anti-Submarine Warfare (ASW) Officer aboard frigates, where he was responsible for the tactical operation of the ships' sonar systems. He is the author or co-author of more than 170 technical reports and professional papers addressing environmental measurement technology, underwater acoustics and physical oceanography. Mr. Etter has written two editions of the book entitled Underwater Acoustic Modeling and has contributed chapters to three other books dealing with physics of the oceans.
