Of all the sensory stimuli discussed in this volume, only sound allows longrange transmission of information underwater. This is a consequence of the extraordinarily low attenuation of sound in water and the ability of sound speed gradients in the ocean to channel sound so that it can propagate without interaction with the surface or bottom.
