Multi-layer sea bottom

[daka-uiuc]

How can I implement a multi-layer seabed like that of the SWellEx-96 experiment, using Kraken?

Which propagation model are you working with?

[daka-uiuc]

I am using Kraken.

Currently we don't have a way of adding multilayer seabeds. In principle, we can add that support by defining an appropriate seabed model, but it may need some careful thinking through. Do you have example Kraken env files for multilayer seabeds that we can use as a starting point?

[daka-uiuc]

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately, I do not have any Kraken env files.

Added an issue to add support for this:
#52

Will implement when I get a chance. Alternatively, if anyone wants to take this up and raise a PR, I am open to it.

To summarize an answer...

We currently don't have support for multiple seabed layers in the environment description. We will need to add that support (#52) and also in models like Kraken from UnderwaterAcoustics.jl.

To be added soon.
