Abstract Presented in this study is a novel method for estimating the depth of single underwater source in shallow water, utilizing vector sensors. The approach leverages the depth distribution of the broadband Stokes parameters to estimate source depth accurately. Unlike traditional matched field processing (MFP) and matched mode processing (MMP), the proposed approach can estimate source depth directly from the data received by sensors without requiring complete environmental information. Firstly, the broadband Stokes parameters (BSP) are established using the normal mode theory. Then the nonstationary phase approximation is used to simplify the theoretical derivation, which is necessary when dealing with broadband integrals. Additionally, range terms of the BSP are eliminated by normalization. By analyzing the depth distribution of the normalized broadband Stokes parameters (NBSP), it is found that the NBSP exhibit extreme values at the source depth, which can be used for source depth estimation. So the proposed depth estimation method is based on searching the peaks of the NBSP. Simulations show that this method is effective in relatively simple shallow water environments. Finally, the effect of source range, frequency bandwidth, sound speed profile (SSP), water depth, and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) are studied. The findings indicate that the proposed method can accurately estimate the source depth when the SNR is greater than $-5$ dB and does not need to consider model mismatch issues. Additionally, variations in environmental parameters have minimal impact on estimation accuracy. Compared to MFP, the proposed method requires a higher SNR, but demonstrates superior robustness against fluctuations in environmental parameters.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
