Infrasound as a Cue for Seabird Navigation
Seabirds are amongst the most mobile of all animal species and spend large amounts of their lives at sea. They cross vast areas of ocean that appear superficially featureless, and our understanding of the mechanisms that they use for navigation remains ...

Acoustic Rocket Signatures Collected by Smartphones
Rockets generate complex acoustic signatures that can be detected over a thousand kilometers from their source. While many far-field acoustic rocket signatures have been collected and released to the public, very few signatures collected at distances ...

Mechanical Filter-Based Differential Pressure Fiber-Optic Fabry-Perot Infrasound Sensor
A differential pressure fiber optic infrasound sensor based on a mechanical filter was developed, for the detection of infrasound within the frequency range of 0.01--1 Hz.

Study on precursory characteristics of granite failure based on infrasonic energy
To study signal characteristics of precursory infrasound of granite failure, coal-rock stress loading device and infrasound acquisition device were adopted to perform infrasound test in uniaxial loading process for granite samples.

Effects of infrasound on the perception of a low-frequency sound
The study investigated the effects of an 8 Hz infrasound sinusoid, presented at a sensation level (SL) of 9 decibels (dB), on the detection of i) a 64 Hz pure tone and ii) an 8 Hz sinusoidal amplitude modulation imposed on a 64 Hz sinusoidal carrier ...

Objective Infrasound is an effective approach for debris flow warning. Traditional threshold-based warning methods focus solely on individual infrasound characteristics, which can lead to false alarms or missed detections.

Annoyance of Audible Infrasound [PDF]
Contours of equal annoyance were determined for pure tones in the frequency range 4 – 31.5 Hz. The curves show a narrowing of the dynamic range of the ear at low frequencies. The same pattern is seen for equal loudness curves, and the results support the theory that the annoyance of infrasound is closely related to the loudness sensation.

An Easy Method to Sample Headspace Pheromones in the Field
Females of the orb‐web spider Argiope bruennichi produces a pheromone to attract males for mating. Most of our knowledge about the pheromone and its strategical use by the females is known from the laboratory. While we have confidence in the validity of these results, we wanted to make sure and measure pheromones in the field.
