agree Tony M : Although sadly neither of your links seems to work, please could you try re-posting them? (my browser doesn't like the truncation!) It's important to note that 'passive' qualifies 'monitoring', not 'acoustic'.

Oui - Merci Gilles, il est vrai que tomographie semble souvent employé dans ce contexte, mais je trouve personnellement que ça fait un peu médical
neutral Tony M : It's not the 'acoustique' that is passive, so I think your word order may not be quite right. NB: 'tomography' appears to be a quite different technique / I'm not questioning that 'acoustique passive' exists; but here, it is the monitoring that's passive
