Their own -- they had gliders out there, drones, two underwater drones. theyre often, almost always, in the south china sea being followed, being shadowed by chinese ships. in this case the chinese recovery ship came in, took the drone, through diplomatic measures they have ayn greemt to get it back. all along officials at the pentagon were saying yes, this is a big deal because it is seizure of u.s. government property and you simply do not do that if you are a professional navy. so they took t...

Is salinity. it will be nuanced here. as richard mentioned it will be difficult, regardless of that, to trace something that washed ashore in reunion all the way back to the search area here. thats what they are going to look at here. as you can see here, this is live current feed from earth school.net. we can track the ocean currents and you can see to the south here some of the eddies that begin to form. it takes a while. theres understoodlation unless t -- undlations. it will be difficult to ...

Salinity of water closer to the shoreline because a lot of these attacks have happened in water up to your calf or hip, not deep out in the midst of the ocean. >> thats usually the case though. you have millions of people going in the same waters that are thousands or millions of sharks that are feeding for over 400 million years in those waters. you are going to get incidents occasionally of a hit. not necessarily on purpose, but mistakes happen and it may be that this year we are getting addit...

Across queensland. at this point, 75 kilometer per hour winds. look at the satellite imagery, four days ago, three days ago, two days ago. its meandered over this region, produced tremendous amount of rainfall. about 31 inches of rainfall that has come down offshore. while around cooktown around the order of 150 millimeters. 6 inches has caused damage to roads. the storm system on the return here. so more rainfall expected. and we know, of course the great barrier reef stretches here the largest...

Salinity and the sound walls on which to bounce the signals. and hopefully we have a shot because if the amplitude is strong we should be close to it. >> you know, jim, we are still awaiting the information from the bluefins first full mission after some setbacks. does it seem that the bluefin is capable of doing the job now? >> oh, i think there is no question of whether or not it is capable. and the reading, what it is doing, giving itself enough time to analyze it properly and exercise a lot ...

Salinity, temperature, and if sound is coming up here, and it hits this layer. because this is slower, it could essentially bend that sound and make it go to a different angle than it was a moment ago, and then it may come out where you dont expect it at all. also, in some cases, it may come up, hit the layer and start ping-ponging between the top and the bottom of it. and by some theories, particularly with lower sounds, it may go many, many, many miles before it comes out. this may explain why...

There have also been attempts to put in buoys to see if they can listen to anything. but any listening device in the water here is going to face one real challenge out there at least. the challenge is whats called the sound fixing and ranging layer. this is about a half mile down. its a naturally occurring phenomenon. its a layer where sound moves less quickly than it does in the ocean below or above it. a lot of different reasons. salinity, water pressure, temperature. but the results are somet...

Reasons. mostly the pressure, temperature, and the salinity of the ocean. the audio sounds are moved around under water and it plays some tricks. its more important less the frequency, its more the cadence. its more the unique manmade sound of it. and it wouldnt be unusual to detect it at a lower frequency, which is the 33. >> hey, chris, lets listen to australian prime minister tony abbott here who continues to afu affirm those pings are starting to fade. >> were now getting to the stage where ...
