Abstract
Suspended sediment in seawater not only affects the optical properties of seawater, such as transparency and color, but it also greatly affects the process of underwater acoustic propagation. The underwater acoustic detection equipment is affected by the change in suspended sediment concentration (SSC) in use. To address this problem, this paper deeply investigates the correlation between the characteristic parameters of acoustic propagation and SSC in different types of water bodies. It identifies the statistical characteristics of the temporal and spatial distributions of SSC in the Chinese seas through quantitative inversion based on satellite remote sensing data. It further analyzes the relationship between the concentration and distribution of suspended sediment and the characteristics of acoustic propagation of underwater weapons and equipment. Finally, it quantitatively evaluates the effect of SSC on the acoustic attenuation coefficient. This study can provide valuable references for the functional departments and base-level units of naval forces to make decisions and strategies for using underwater acoustic detection equipment.
