Abstract
The purpose of. this study is to investigate the
influence of non-environmental and small scale environmental
acoustic factors on the variation of transmission
loss within areas of the ocean which exhibit homogeniety of
large scale environmental factors. The method employed was
to identify the influencing and non-influencing factors,
pool over the non-influencing factors if they existed, and
investigate the nature and magnitude of the effect of the
influencing factors on the variation of transmission loss.
The results generally indicated that source/receiver
depth, the mixed layer, geographic location, and transmitting
range and frequency significantly influenced the
variation of transmission loss.
