Who Are We?

The OPERA Lab, led by Professor Lora Van Uffelen, has a broad interest in the area of underwater acoustics and a particular focus on the use of autonomous underwater vehicles as acoustic receiving platforms. Research projects have included data collection in locations ranging from Hawaii to the Arctic.

Research Areas:

• Long-range underwater acoustic propagation
• Acoustic propagation in a changing Arctic
• Underwater geo-positioning at long-range using acoustics
• Impacts of ocean variability on propagation and geo-positioning
• Passive acoustic monitoring using autonomous underwater platforms
• Benchmarking underwater platform position and self-noise
• Automation of acoustic data processing algorithms
