An example acoustic measurement system includes a container comprising a container wall structurally defining an internal cavity of the container, a process fluid disposed within the internal cavity, a first acoustic sensor coupled to an external surface of the container wall, and a second acoustic sensor coupled to the external surface of the container wall, the first and second acoustic sensors configured to emit ultrasonic waves according to different modalities, wherein, in operation, the system is configured to compensate for temperature in near real-time to acoustically determine container wall thickness measurements. In some embodiments, the second acoustic sensor is proximate the first acoustic sensor and in some further embodiments, a third acoustic sensor is coupled to the external surface of the container wall at a calculated distance from at least the second acoustic sensor. The second and third acoustic sensors may be configured to emit and receive acoustic waves, including bulk, interface, and/or guided waves, wherein, in operation, the system is configured to determined one or more physical properties of the process fluid in short-range.
