Abstract
Underwater sound propagation is inherently nonstationary, particularly in shallow water where the ocean surface and bottom act like waveguide boundaries, giving rise to structural (or geometric) dispersion. The spectrogram has been a principal means to study the nonstationarities and dispersion characteristics of shallow-water sound propagation. In this paper, we give the low-order conditional time-frequency moments of a wave propagating in a waveguide. Comparison of these results is made to spectrograms of explosive source sound propagation in the Yellow Sea.
