Advances in Marine Seismoacoustics
On land, we are seeing increasing interdependence between seismic and infrasonic or acoustic observations for many important research applications. Continued expansion of seismoacoustic research into the oceans has given rise to a vast expansion of our geophysical reach, sensing and observational capabilities. Both autonomous deep ocean sensing and near-shore cabled arrays have provided significant advances not only for geodynamic modeling but also earthquake and tsunami early warning, extension of global geophysical models and new appreciation of the complex and coupled problem of hydroacoustic and seafloor seismic interactions and phenomena. We invite contributions surrounding all relevant studies addressing marine seismoacoustic issues, including sensor and communications developments, oceanic noise (both hydroacoustic and seismic), marine mammal vocalization and acoustic tomography, propagation and phase conversion, spreading center, transform system and subduction models and observations and fusion of relevant geophysical observations to augment new and existing seafloor seismic data.
