ABSTRACT:
A marine acoustic array employs a plurality of sections connected together sequentially with the outer surfaces of said sections having a non-smooth configuration to create a water flow along the length of the array as it is towed through a water layer that causes sensors within the array to provide outputs having improved signal-to-noise ratios.
