Does slowing down improve ship spottings?

Frequent diving to listen will improve your ship contacts. In my present patrol I found 4 out of 5 ships via hydrophone. Sometimes I'll sit for days submerged, moving at 1 knot and surface only to refresh the atmosphere. In a good part of the ocean this tactic works well.

If you travel deeper will you get sound from farther away what with denser water?

Would that be true in vanilla SH3, or GWX?
