An attenuation loss model computes the absorption of sound by the minerals in sea water.
The attenuation is calculated as a dB factor that gets applied to the acoustic ray at each range step. These models compute their results as a function of frequency to support broadband acoustics.

Computes the broadband absorption loss of sea water.
location | Location at which to compute attenuation. |
frequencies | Frequencies over which to compute loss. (Hz) |
distance | Distance travelled through the water (meters). |
attenuation | Absorption loss of sea water in dB (output). |
Implemented in profile_model, attenuation_thorp, and attenuation_constant.
