OUTLINE• Acoustic thermometry and the Arctic Ocean – a little
background• ACOUS (Arctic Climate Observations using
Underwater Sound) – The Trans-Arctic Acoustic Propagation (TAP) Experiment
1994– Continuous acoustic section from Oct.1998 through Dec.
1999– Measurements at Ice Camp APLIS during SCICEX 1999
• SCICEX Cruises from 1995-2000– Repeated Trans-Arctic CTD section shows increased
warming of AIW– Sections used to model acoustic response
• Ocean Observatories and Long term observations in the Arctic Ocean - update

Acoustic ThermometrySpeed of sound dependent on water
temperature• Acoustic Thermometry
– Average temperature along a propagation path derived from travel time changes between the source and receiver
– Reciprocal transmissions can resolve average net current along the path
– Arctic Ocean uniquely suited for acoustic thermometry due to good coupling of acoustic modes and major Arctic water masses

TAP Acoustic Section: Ice deployed source to the Lincoln Sea ice camp and the ONR Sea Ice Mechanics Initiative (SIMI) ice camp in the Beaufort Sea April, 1994 – A feasibility test
ACOUS Acoustic Section: Moored source to the APLIS ice camp in the Chukchi Sea April, 1999 and to bottom moored vertical array in the Lincoln Sea Oct. 1998 to Dec. 1999
ARCTIC OCEAN influences Earth’ssurface heat balance and the thermohalinecirculation of the world’s oceans
Significant change in the Arctic Ocean in the last 20 years:• Temperature increase in AIW• ~40% loss in sea ice mass
Forecasts of ice-free summer in this century

Arctic Climate Observations using Underwater Sound (ACOUS)
• US/Russia bilateral program started in 1992• Use acoustic thermometry to measure Arctic
Ocean temperature and derive heat content• TAP Feasibility exp. in 1994 showed strong
coupling between travel times and AIW temp., observed basin scale AIW warming (~.4 °C avg. max)
• Source installed in Oct. 1998 with transmissions every 4 days to receive array in Lincoln Sea
• Reception of source signals at APLIS ice camp in April 1999 showed continued warming in AIW consistent with SCICEX CTD’s (~.5°C avg. max)

Conclusions and Future
• Acoustic modal travel times are an excellent proxy for the average temperature and heat content of the AIW in the Arctic Ocean– Monitoring of the average depth of the thermocline/upper
mixed layer also possible• Monitoring sea ice roughness/thickness by observing
changes in acoustic propagation loss and monitoring salinity above the halocline using acoustic halinometryare under investigation
• Network of undersea moorings as contemplated by the Ocean Observatories Initiative will include acoustic sources and receivers that can provide synoptic real-time coverage
