This paper describes a new kind of acoustic metasurface with multiply resonant units, which have previously been used to induce multiple resonances and effectively produce negative mass density and bulk/shear moduli. The proposed acoustic metasurface can be constructed using real materials and does not rely on an ideal rigid material. Therefore, it can work well in a water background. The thickness of the acoustic metasurface is about two orders of magnitude smaller than the acoustic wavelength in water. The design of a unit group is proposed to avoid the phase discretization becoming too fine in such a long-wavelength condition. We demonstrate that the proposed acoustic metasurface achieves good performance in anomalous reflection, focusing, and carpet cloaking.
