Resumen
As one of the widespread physical phenomena in the global ocean system, the ocean front has a very important influence on underwater sound propagation. Firstly, this paper systematically reviews several methods for the detection of ocean fronts in the past decades, including traditional oceanographic methods, artificial intelligence methods, and acoustic methods, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of each method. Next, some modeling studies of ocean fronts are reported in this paper. Based on the above research, we pay more attention to research progress on the acoustic effects of ocean fronts, including simulation analysis and experimental research, which has also been the focus of underwater acousticians for a long time. In addition, this paper looks forward to the future development direction of this field, which can provide good guidance for the study of ocean fronts and their acoustic effects in the future.
