  • Fixed Sonar Systems the History and Future of The
    THE SUBMARINE REVIEW FIXED SONAR SYSTEMS THE HISTORY AND FUTURE OF THE UNDEWATER SILENT SENTINEL by LT John Howard, United States Navy Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, California Undersea Warfare Department Executive Summary One of the most challenging aspects of Anti-Submarine War- fare (ASW) has been the detection and tracking of submerged contacts. One of the most successful means of achieving this goal was the Sound Surveillance System (SOSUS) developed by the United States Navy in the early 1950's. It was designed using breakthrough discoveries of the propagation paths of sound through water and intended to monitor the growing submarine threat of the Soviet Union. SOSUS provided cueing of transiting Soviet submarines to allow for optimal positioning of U.S. ASW forces for tracking and prosecution of these underwater threats. SOSUS took on an even greater national security role with the advent of submarine launched ballistic missiles, ensuring that U.S. forces were aware of these strategic liabilities in case hostilities were ever to erupt between the two superpowers. With the end of the Cold War, SOSUS has undergone a number of changes in its utilization, but is finding itself no less relevant as an asset against the growing number of modern quiet submarines proliferating around the world. Introduction For millennia, humans seeking to better defend themselves have set up observation posts along the ingress routes to their key strongholds. This could consist of something as simple as a person hidden in a tree, to extensive networks of towers communicating 1 APRIL 2011 THE SUBMARINE REVIEW with signal fires.

  • Snorkeling, Yes Or No?
    SNORKELING, YES OR NO? Snorkeling is the practice of swimming at the surface of a body of water while equipped with a diving mask, a shaped tube called a snorkel, and usually swimfins to observe underwater attractions for extended periods of time with relatively little effort. Snorkel The most common places to do this activity are warm tropical waters, as the Caribbean, the Coral Sea, the Red Sea or even the Canary Islands. The primary attraction of snorkeling is the opportunity to observe underwater life in a natural setting. coral reefs, fish, cephalopods, starfish, sea urchins, mollusks, jellyfish, shrimps, sea turtles, various types of sea cactus. Snorkeling is easy, it doesn’t require especial training, you only have to swim and to breathe through the snorkel, which is a plastic tube about thirty centimeters, usually J-shaped, fitted with a mouthpiece. Normally, it’s only necessary instruction about equipment usage and basic safety. It’s not an expensive activity: diving mask, snorkel and swimfins are a cheap equipment, you just need to be able to reach the sea. And it’s ideal to practice as a family activity or with friends. For all these reasons, I’d like very much to practice snorkeling because I’m very fond of swimming and I want to observe underwater life and see shellfish and the other animals that live in our coasts. Where did you miss the point??? This is not supposed to be a descriptive essay, but AN OPINION WRITING!!! I´m afraid all this work is good for nothing and you will have to do it again.

  • Standard Operating Procedures Manual for Sidescan Sonar Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries
    Standard Operating Procedures Manual for Sidescan Sonar Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries July 2018 3rd Edition 1 FOREWORD The purpose of this Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) document is to provide DMF employees with consolidated and standardized guidelines and requirements for conducting, processing, and generating sidescan sonar surveys for various purposes including habitat mapping and target identification. This manual summarizes current best practices and utilizes information from other similar guidance documents including the NOAA Field Procedures Manual for hydrographic surveys (April 2010), the Recommended Operating Guidelines (ROG) for Side-scan Sonar by Mapping European Seabed Habitats (August 2005), and procedures described in the manufacturers guidelines for the equipment referenced. CHANGE HISTORY This document will require periodic updating. Recommended changes and other comments regarding the manual should be forwarded via email to [email protected]. 2 1. Description of Systems The systems utilized for sidescan survey work include the sidescan transducers and topside processing units, the GPS signal systems, and the vessels and mounting systems used on each vessel. These are described below. 1.1. Sidescan Systems 1.1.1. Klein 3000 The Klein 3000 sidescan sonar (Figures 1 and 2) is a dual frequency single beam sonar that can simultaneously collect at 132 kHz and 445 kHz frequencies (this is commonly called a 100/500 kHz system) on both sides (two transducers). The horizontal width of the beam is 0.7° at 132 kHz and 0.21° at 445 kHz. The Klein 3000 sidescan system is owned by MIT Seagrant and is on loan to DMF. Our key points of contact at MIT Seagrant are Michael Sacarny and Chryssostomos Chryssostomidis (the Director).
