Abstract

Abstract

In this paper we studied on two methods of seafloor deposition in-situ acoustic detection,i.e.,the transmission measurement and the refraction measurement,analyzed characteristics of 10 kinds of in-situ instruments of seafloor surface sediment acoustic measurement,and discussed the influence of different measurement techniques on the acoustic properties of seafloor sediment. Then,we compared the differences in obtained results between in-situ measurement and laboratorial measurement on the seafloor sediment of the Yellow Sea,analyzed the reason why the in-situ measurement data are generally smaller than laboratorial measurement results. Finally,we suggested that in-situ acoustic measurement is of importance on studying seafloor sediment,and the in-situ measurement techniques for other physical properties need to be improved to match the requirements of in-situ acoustic measurement of seafloor sediment.
