On the Possible Detection of Lightning Storms by Elephants [PDF]

open access: yesAnimals, 2013
Theoretical calculations suggest that sounds produced by thunderstorms and detected by a system similar to the International Monitoring System (IMS) for the detection of nuclear explosions at distances ≥100 km, are at sound pressure levels equal to or greater than 6 × 10−3 Pa.
