Probing Gravity Waves in the Middle Atmosphere Using Infrasound From Explosions [PDF]
This study uses low-frequency, inaudible acoustic waves (infrasound) to probe wind and temperature fluctuations associated with breaking gravity waves (GWs) in the middle atmosphere.

Infrasound measurement system for real-time in situ tornado measurements
. Previous work suggests that acoustic waves at frequencies below human hearing (infrasound) are produced during tornadogenesis and continue through the life of a tornado, which have potential to locate and profile tornadic events and provide a range of ...

Estimating tropospheric and stratospheric winds using infrasound from explosions [PDF]
The receiver-to-source backazimuth of atmospheric infrasound signals is biased when cross-winds are present along the propagation path. Infrasound from 598 surface explosions from over 30 years in northern Finland is measured with high spatial resolution on an array 178 km almost due North.

Inhibitory effects of low decibel infrasound on the cardiac fibroblasts and the involved mechanism
Introduction: Infrasound is a mechanical vibration wave with frequency between 0.0001 and 20 Hz. It has been established that infrasound of 120 dB or stronger is dangerous to humans.

Infrasound of a Wind Turbine Reanalyzed as Power Spectrum and Power Spectral Density [PDF]
The infrasound levels due to the blade-tower interaction generated by a wind turbine in the publication by Pilger and Ceranna (JSV, Vol. 388, pp. 188-200, 2017) have to be corrected to be interpreted as sound pressure level. Also, the electrical power of the wind turbine should be corrected for the high wind case to 660 kW.

Graphene Aerogels for Ultrabroadband Thermoacoustics [PDF]
Sound is usually generated in a medium by an electromechanical vibrating structure. The geometrical size and inertia of the structure set the frequency cutoff in the sound-transduction mechanism and, often, different vibrating structures are necessary to cover the whole range from infrasound to ultrasound.

Spectral integration of infrasound at threshold [PDF]
The present study investigated the effect of the number of spectral components on the threshold in quiet of infrasound stimuli. Stimuli with one, two, or three sinusoidal components were presented monaurally to the ear with a low-distortion infrasound reproduction system.

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.

Lahars are one of the greatest hazards at many volcanoes, including Volcán de Fuego (Guatemala). On 1 December 2018 at 8:00pm local Guatemala time (2:00:00 UTC), an hour-long lahar event was detected at Volcán de Fuego by two permanent seismo-acoustic ...
