Abstract:

Statistical characteristics of the sound waves, propagating through the moving media with random sound speed, density, and velocity inhomogeneities, are calculated in the Born approximation using the geometric–acoustics approximation and the methods of smooth perturbation and parabolic equation as well as theory of multiple scattering. A new method for remote sounding of the atmospheric humidity fluctuations is proposed.
