	abstract = {Ambient noise interferometry is a technique that uses coherent ambient sound measured at two separate locations to estimate the Green{\textquoteright}s function between the sensors. Specifically, if the ambient sound is diffuse, the cross-correlation between sensors converges to the Green{\textquoteright}s function between the sensors. In this talk, we apply the technique of ambient noise interferometry to two Ocean Observatories Initiative hydrophones that are separated by 3.2km and bottom mounted at a depth of 1500 m. It has previously been shown that these hydrophones can passively estimate several multi-path propagation peaks reliably throughout the 8 years that they have been recording ambient sound. We present an algorithm that estimates the arrival time of these peaks using the empirical Green{\textquoteright}s function and compare these estimated arrivals to simulated acoustic arrivals. We demonstrate that the arrival times estimated with ambient sound show good agreement with the simulated results and have clear annual fluctuations due to seasonal temperature changes in the water column. We will discuss the future possibilities of extending this work for inversion based oceanographic measurements. [work supported by ONR.]},
