Acoustic-oceanological simulation of seawater hydrophysical parameters on temperature measurements in the Sea of Japan shelf zone

Abstract

The studies of hydrophysical fields characteristics, carried out in the Peter the Great Bay shelf zone (the Sea of Japan) over a number of years, allowed to calculate the regression dependences between the distributions of the measured temperature and salinity values, remaining stable during each season. When the logger thermostrings are used in the acoustic experiments, these dependences allow considerably increasing the accuracy calculation of the sound velocity and buoyancy frequency space-time distributions.
