Underwater sounds are typically broadband and pulsed, and have been described as clicks, trills, knocks, whoops, growls, and moans.
Fin Whale

Fin whales produce a variety of low frequency sounds, some of which can be as loud as 190 underwater dB.

How does sound travel in shallow water?

The way in which sound speed changes with depth is not the same everywhere in shallow water.
Introduction to Phase

Phase specifies the location or timing of a point within a wave cycle of a repetitive waveform.
