Much work is presently being done concerning small scale heterogeneities in the
earth's crust. These heterogeneities range from pores in sedimentary rocks up to
fluctuations in the density and seismic constants of the earth's crust with scale lengths
of kilometers. The ability to study and quantify these heterogeneities using seismic...
Acoustic scattering layers of biological origin have been observed for nearly 70 years across the world’s oceans. The organisms that comprise these layers are known to be important features in most oceanic ecosystems, providing a vital trophic link between small phytoplankton grazers and larger species. There are many aspects of...
