Fifteen years ago NATO organised a conference entitled ’Ocean Acoustic Modelling’. Many of its participants were again present at this variability workshop. One such participant. in concluding his 1975 paper, quoted the following from a 1972 literature survey: ’ ... history presents a sad lack of communications between acousticians and oceanographers’ Have we done any better in the last 15 years? We believe so, but only moderately. There is still a massive underdeveloped potential for acousticians and oceanographers to make significant progress together. Currently, the two camps talk together insufficiently even to avoid simple misun derstandings. such as those in Table 1.
