The Navy relies on physics-informed, passive approaches to learn about the regional oceanography at a receiver. Of particular interest are data-driven through-the-sensor signal processing approaches which exploit the dominant, acoustic energy radiated by uncontrolled, broadband surface vessel. These sources are used to estimate sea-floor depth, bottom parameters, and the sound speed structure in the water column. Near-term research contributions include, but are not limited to, understanding the information content of noise, influential oceanographic processes, source dynamics, and optimal sensor configuration. Long-term efforts include contributions to developing data-assimilation models including Bayesian approaches to estimating environmental parameters.
