Over the past 100 years or so, ordnance has entered aquatic environments around the US at military testing and training sites. As these sites transition away from military use, it’s necessary to clean up unexploded ordnance that may have been left behind. We interview Kyle Dalton, one of the winners of the POMA Student Paper Competition from the 182nd meeting of the ASA, about his research regarding the modeling of these unexploded ordnances so they can be detected with sonar.
