       abstract = "Modes and wavenumbers are the principal ingredients that characterize the pressure
         field in an oceanic waveguide. However, wavenumber and mode inversions are well-known to be a
         difficult task in underwater acoustics. Moreover, this double inversion has never been performed
         simultaneously from the same configuration of emitters and receivers. We present a new approach to
         this problem in a shallow water environment between two vertical arrays of sources and receivers.
         Starting from a classical modal decomposition of the pressure field, our algorithm focuses on a
         specific treatment of phase and amplitude variables. The key idea is to run a three-stage
         optimization by working separately on the phase and amplitude of the acoustic field. The high number
         of variables of the problem is turned into an advantage by using an adjoint code generated by an
         Automatic Differentiation software. Numerical results in the presence of noise show that modes and
         wavenumbers are estimated with a high accuracy.",
