This paper presents results for matched field Bayesian geoacoustic inversion of multitonal continuous wave data collected on the New Jersey continental shelf. To account for effects of significant spatial and temporal variation of the water column sound speed, the sound speed profile was represented by empirical orthogonal functions. Data error information for the inversion was estimated from multiple time windows of the data. Inversion results for the sediment sound speeds at three ranges are in excellent agreement with the ground truth.
