I have understood in principle for a few years now how thermals affect sonar. However, I never saw anything concrete upon which to measure it in SC/DW.

Today, I was going through the Akula training mission for SC by Eric Fox. He pointed out that you could graphically signal strength in DEMON by number of lines and the thickness. I never knew this. Sure enough as you change depth across layers, the right most line simply dissappears. This is the first and only time I have seen and easy graphic representation of the SSP in action.

Is this common knowledge and everyone knows this already? For me, it just came as a revelation!!!

Thank you, Eric Fox.
