Towing tank at the Faculty of Applied Science and Engineering Towing Tank at Memorial University of Newfoundland (MUN). Three sizes of hollow steel sphere were dropped from the far end of the tank (see white circle) to create an impact at the water surface; sphere diameters 150, 203, and 305 mm, and mass 1.6, 4.0 and 13.4 kg, respectively. The radiated acoustic–gravity waves from the impacting sphere was recorded by a hydrophone type Ocean Sonics icListen HF −200 m model SB2-ETH S/N 1267 (www.oceansonics.com).
