Infrasound radiation of cyclones

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2005
Tropical cyclones produce strong perturbations of atmosphere and the ocean surface accompanied by acoustical radiation. Infrasonic signals in the 0.1−0.5 frequency band can be observed at distances of thousands of miles from the cyclone. The effect of infrasound radiation is connected apparently to the interaction of the counter-propagating sea-surface

Audibility of infrasound

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1974
The distortion of pure tones (1–16 Hz) caused by the nonlinearities of the middle ear was calculated. It is shown that the slope of the audibility curves for infrasound of Yeowart and Evans could be predicted, thus implying that infrasound might not be heard in the normal sense, but only heard as distortion after being transduced through the middle ear.

Infrasound generated by meteorological fronts as a background for infrasound monitoring of explosions

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2022
The results of study of temporal variations of the characteristics of infrasound (amplitudes, coherences, grazing angles, azimuths and horizontal phase speeds) detected during a passage of warm and cold fronts through the networks of microbarometers in the Moscow region are presented.

What is infrasound?

open access: yesProgress in Biophysics and Molecular Biology, 2007
Definitions of infrasound and low-frequency noise are discussed and the fuzzy boundary between them described. Infrasound, in its popular definition as sound below a frequency of 20 Hz, is clearly audible, the hearing threshold having been measured down to 1.5 Hz. The popular concept that sound below 20 Hz is inaudible is not correct.

Annoyance of infrasounds

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2001
At the present developed procedures of evaluation of annoyance of low frequency noise (LFN) on human and occupational health are based on international standards, ISO 7196 and ISO 9612. These standards are based on levels of thresholds of the human auditory system and subjective observations of vibrations of human body impacted by infrasound waves.

Trauma of the Ear from Infrasound

Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1982
Twenty-eight chinchillas received continuous or intermittent infrasound (1, 10, 20 Hz) at 150, 160, or 170 dB SPL; there were 7 controls. Serial sections of the temporal bones were examined using light microscopy. Pathologies noted were tympanic membrane perforation, stapes subluxation, bleeding from the middle ear mucosa and tensor tympani, strial ...

Ultrasound and Infrasound

1998
Ultrasound and infrasound differ from “ordinary” sounds in three distinct ways that influence all the considerations of this chapter. The first and most obvious characteristic of these sound types is that, by definition, they are “extreme” frequencies that fall outside the normal response curve for the human ear (see Figure 1) and are therefore ...

Coherency of infrasound studied with a large aperture infrasound array in the Netherlands

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2008
A large aperture infrasound array (LAIA) is being constructed in the Netherlands as geophysical part of an astronomical low frequency array, i.e., the LOFAR project. This array extends the detection capabilities of infrasound up to the mHz range, including acoustic-gravity and gravity waves as well.

Explosion localization via infrasound

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2009
Two acoustic source localization techniques were applied to infrasonic data and their relative performance was assessed. The standard approach for low-frequency localization uses an ensemble of small arrays to separately estimate far-field source bearings, resulting in a solution from the various back azimuths. This method was compared to one developed

On aerodynamic infrasound

Journal of Atmospheric and Terrestrial Physics, 1971
Abstract We consider atmospheric pressure variations in the period range from a few seconds to a few minutes. These pressure fluctuations arise 1. (a) from local hydrodynamic effects which are estimated; 2. (b) from nonpropagating pressure effects associated, for example, with a jet stream; 3.
