| Summary: | This study is performed in tandem with numerous experiments performed by the U.S. Navy to characterize the ocean environment in the South Florida region. The research performed in this study includes signal processing steps for isolating ocean phenomena, such as internal waves, in the magnetic field. Raw magnetometer signals, one on shore and one underwater, are processed and removed of common distortions. They are then run through a series of filtering techniques, including frequency domain cancellation (FDC). The results of the filtered magnetic residual are compared to similarly processed Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) data to correlate whether a magnetic signature is caused by ocean phenomena. | |
