the South Malabar coast during

Description The knowledge of the sound distribution in the sea is of importance in
fathmetry and in sonar studies. It is with a view to find the corrections
to various echo-sounders with different 'sounding velocities' for use in the
Arabian Sea, along the South-Western coast of India, this study has been
undertaken. As a preliminary, the results for the period immediately after
the South-West monsoon only, are given in this paper. As it would be of
interest for further studies in locating the subsurface barriers by sonic method
and because of the importance of the sound velocity in under-water acoustics,
the distribution of sound velocity is fully discussed without making any
special reference to the individual problems.
