How would one go about calculating the amount of sound transmitted from air to soundwater?

From experience recordungrecording bats over water surfaces I guesssuspect a lot of sound is reflected back up into the air. However, can someone tell me broadly how much of the sound makes it into the water?

I tried looking into this and found one somewhat deep-sea oriented report, which didn't bring me far.

I'm looking to understand how much of the sound (say the received level at 1m below surface) will go into the water from the call of a Daubenton's bat flying 30-40 cm above the water surface. Let's assume a source level of 100 dB SPL @1 m (20uPa ref).
