About

Over the past decade, underwater explosive sounds have been recorded in the U.S. Navy’s Southern California Range Complex. The majority of these events are related to the use of seal bombs by the fishing industry as a deterrent to depredation. In addition, a smaller number of explosions are from Navy ordnance use during training exercises, especially in the Southern California Anti-submarine Warfare (ASW) Range (SOAR).
