60 MTR March 2007 in the sea into mathematical formulas solvable by computers. This course provides a comprehensive treatment of all types of underwater acoustic models including environmental, propagation, noise, reverberation and sonar performance models. Specific examples of each type of model are discussed to illustrate model formula- tions, assumptions and algorithm efficiency. Students will receive a copy of Underwater Acoustic Modeling and Simulation by Paul C. Etter. http://www.aticourses.com/underwa- ter_acoustics_modeling.htm May 14-17, 2007 Sonar Principles & ASW Analysis This course provides an excellent introduction to underwater sound and highlights how sonar principles are employed in ASW analyses. The course provides a solid understanding of the sonar equation and discusses in-depth propagation loss, target strength, reverberation, arrays, array gain, and detection of signals. http://www.aticourses.com/sonar_prin- ciples_asw_analysis.htm May 15-17, 2007 Mechanics of Underwater Noise The course describes the essential mechanisms of underwater noise as it relates to ship/submarine silencing applications. The fundamental prin- ciples of noise sources, water-borne and structure-borne noise propaga- tion, and noise control methodolo- gies are explained. Illustrative exam- ples will be presented. The course will be geared to those desiring a basic understanding of underwater noise and ship/submarine silencing with necessary mathematics presented as gently as possible. A full set of notes will be given to participants as well as a copy of the text, Mechanics of Underwater Noise, by Donald Ross. http://www.aticourses.com/mechan- ics_underwater_noise.htm June 4-6, 2007 Geomatics Atlantic 2007 Geomatics Atlantic 2007 will take place at the Marine Institute, Memorial University St. John's, Newfoundland, June 4-6, 2007. The theme of the conference is Coastal and Marine Geomatics'. Discussions will cover: Ocean Observation, Fisheries geomatics, Coastal Zone Management, and Offshore oil & gas. www.cig-nl.net June 5-7, 2007 UDT Europe 2007 20th Anniversary of the world's largest undersea defense event. La Mostra d'Oltremare, Naples, Italy http://www.udt-europe.com June 22-24, 2007 MATE Center and MTS ROV Committee 2007 International ROV Competition The Marine Advanced Technology Education (MATE) Center and the Marine Technology Society's (MTS) Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) Committee are issuing an icy chal- lenge to students interested in under- water technology. Next June, the annual international ROV competi- tion, sponsored and organized by the MATE Center and the MTS ROV Committee and supported by the National Science Foundation (NSF), will focus on the earth's Polar Regions. The competition will be held in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. http://www.marinetech.org/ rov_competition/index.php June 25-29, 2007 Underwater Acoustic Measurements: Technologies and Results Like the successful 1st international conference on Underwater Acoustic Measurements: Technologies and Results, held in June/July 2005, the 2nd international conference will focus on underwater acoustic meas- urements, the applied technologies and the results obtained. As many theoretical and computational predic- tions are available in the field of underwater acoustics, and as several important experimental studies rang- ing from model scale tests in labora- tories to full scale tests at sea have been performed over the past or are planned to take place in the near future, it is timely again to review the whole field of underwater acoustic measurements.
