In its relentless pursuit of further knowledge, science tends to compartmentalize. Over the years the pursuit of What might be called geophysical acoustics of the sea-surface has languished. This has occured even through there are well-developed and active research programs in underwater acoustics, ocean hydrodynamics, cloud and precipitation physics, and ice mechanics - to name a few - as well as a history of engineering expertise built on these scientific fields. It remained to create a convergence, a dialogue across disciplines, of mutual benefit. The central theme of the Lerici workshop, perhaps overly simplified, was 'What are the mechanisms causing ...

Reviews for Sea Surface Sound
`The papers collected in Sea-surface Sound are a landmark in its field, and will keenly interest marine acousticians and seismologists having primarily theoretical and numerical modeling interests, but will also be valuable for seismic and sonar survey planners interested in reducing ambient noise effects for specific environments.' Pageoph, 135 (1) 1991
