Remote sensing of seeps, the release of gas (mainly methane) from the seabed, is an urgent task. The importance of detecting seeps in Arctic shelf zone region is constantly growing due to the degradation of underwater permafrost and the release of gas hydrates. Gas bubbles scatter underwater sound and their resonant frequencies correspond are in the kilohertz range for seeps observed in nature. A promising method for detecting and studying seeps is probing with underwater sound near the denoted resonant frequency. This corresponds to a decrease in the operating frequency relative to the traditional method of studying high-frequency sonars, so the proposed method will be classified as low-frequency in this study. This method expands the study area due to the low sound attenuation in water and the high scattering level near at bubble resonances. Estimates of the scattering strength were carried out taking into account collective interaction (group effects) of bubles. The possibility of using low-frequency hydroacoustic systems to detect seeps has been demonstrated using the results of a full-scale experiment using a simulated bubble jet as an example. A data processing method for detecting nonstationary scatterers is proposed.
