| Abstract | Recently, an analytic adjoint-based method of optimal nonlocal boundary control has been proposed for inversion of a waveguide acoustic field using the wide-angle parabolic equation [Meyer & Hermand, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 117, 2937–2948 (2005)]. In this paper a numerical extension of this approach is presented that allows the direct inversion for the geoacoustic parameters which are embedded in a discrete representation of the nonlocal boundary condition. The adjoint model is generated numerically and the inversion is carried out jointly across multiple frequencies. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the implemented numerical adjoint, an illustrative example is presented for the geoacoustic characterization of a Mediterranean shallow water environment using realistic experimental conditions. |
