Examples of Carter Corrected DBDB-V Applied to Acoustic Propagation Modeling

The purpose of this report is to describe the difference between nominal depth, as reported in the Naval Oceanographic Office's (NAVO's) Digital Bathymetry Data Base - Variable Resolution, Version 5.1 (DBDB-V v5.1) and true depth, which can be computed from nominal depth (Carter, 1980), an...

Summary:The purpose of this report is to describe the difference between nominal depth, as reported in the Naval Oceanographic Office's (NAVO's) Digital Bathymetry Data Base - Variable Resolution, Version 5.1 (DBDB-V v5.1) and true depth, which can be computed from nominal depth (Carter, 1980), and to show the impact of using nominal versus true depth on acoustic propagation estimates.
