Abstract
Cavitationlike bubble collapses and the bursting of floating bubbles have been proposed in the literature as sources of oceanic ambient noise at kilohertz frequencies. The first process is shown to be physically impossible in the oceanic environment. The noise produced by the second mechanism is estimated and shown to be too weak to be of any significance.
