to the Acoustic Thermometry of Ocean Climate (ATOC) program." The article traces the involvement of the New Zealand group, beginning with the Heard Island Feasibility Test (RIFT) which attempted to see whether underwater sound from a sound projecting source could be detected at long ranges. The results were mixed with a lack of detectable signals at times, attributed to internal waves and a larger source being needed. A strong signal from Heard Island was however, observed close to Tasmania.

accuracy makes the payoff worth the effort expended in understanding their use." In 1981 Bold collaborated on a project that explored an improved model at the time, for getting better ray calculations by using bounded beams to modify ray paths with a uniform sound speed profile in the Pekeris channel. The authors concluded that this can affect the eigenray yields, "to be as good as normal mode theory for practical calculations in shallow water".

lecture treatments with discussions of complex, yet familiar phenomena and working backward to discussions of the simple physical laws underlying them". Early in his teaching career Bold realised that to be an effective lecturer he needed to develop his verbal skills so that the sessions were interesting for the students. He held that it was crucial for an educator to critically examine their delivery and look for and accept feedback.

Bold had an interest in amateur radio and as an active member of the New Zealand Association of Radio Transmitters (NZART), won a prize for the quality of his columns in the organisation's newsletters. 448: 238:
Bold won the Prime Minister's Supreme Award at the 2004 Tertiary Teaching Excellence Awards, which included a prize of NZD$ 30,000. Upon receiving the award, his advice was to "seek out the excellent practitioners, and shamelessly adapt their ideas. They'll be delighted." He also told the NZ Herald,

that every year he had adapted and improved his teaching. He wrote on pedagogy and in 1996 co-authored an article for the American Journal of Physics that proposed a top-down model for teaching physics. The writers acknowledged that this "reversed the traditional model and was based on beginning all

Tom Barnes, University of Auckland Deputy Vice-chancellor (Research) at the time, claimed that Bold taught him how to teach and because "his knowledge encyclopaedic and his enthusiasm boundless...... lecture preparation simply the best I have ever come across." Barnes added that Bold had a
