Acoustical Society of America is sponsoring a special issue in The Journal of 
the Acoustical Society of America (JASA) and JASA Express Letters on underwater 
acoustic sound sources, propagation modeling, and the metrics for calculating 
potential impacts on marine mammals. The deadline for submissions is October 2, 
2023.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):
   
   - Verification and validation of underwater sound source models
   - Verification and validation of underwater sound propagation models
   - Metrics for impact assessment of underwater sound sources

Please review the Call for Papers for more details: Special Issue: Verification 
and Validation of Source and Propagation Models for Underwater Sound | The
