Abstract
During an experiment in deep water off the coast of Southern California, wind speeds ranged from 10 to 15 m/s and wind forcing produced large breaking waves. A mid-frequency vertical planar hydrophone array recorded underwater ambient noise while an airplane equipped with a high-resolution video camera captured images of the sea surface above the array. Beams of ambient noise between 5 and 6 kHz were projected onto the sea surface and synchronized in space and time with the aerial images. Despite the array's limited azimuthal resolution of the surface, due to its modest 1 m horizontal aperture and relatively deep 130 m deployment depth, concentrated areas of high intensity in the acoustic surface projection were observed to match visible breaking events in the aerial images.
