Seabed and Sediment Acoustics

Organised by the Underwater Acoustics Group of the Institute of Acoustics

Seabed and Sediment Acoustics: Measurements and Modelling
University of Bath, UK 7-9 September 2015

In 2005, the University of Bath hosted the successful international conference “Boundary Influences in High Frequency, Shallow Water Acoustics”. This was the 3rd conference in a series of UK seabed acoustics international conferences, the previous meetings being held in 1983 and 1993. The many advances in the field over the last decade make it appropriate to hold another conference to discuss the latest research and applications.
