Recent Advances in Infrasonic and Seismoacoustic Research

Session ID#: 82825

Session Description:
Infrasonic and atmospheric acoustic signals are frequently leveraged for national and global security applications such as detonation detection, as well as civil and scientific applications such as atmospheric studies and natural hazard monitoring.  Infrasound is utilized as a stand-alone capability and as a supplement to seismic, hydroacoustic, and other phenomenologies.  The models describing seismoacoustic sources and propagation effects have been steadily advancing so that infrasonic signatures are more easily leveraged for such analyses.  We invite submissions detailing recent research advances in infrasound, seismoacoustic, and similar multi-phenomenological research.  Presentations detailing existing and emerging source and propagation models as well as relevant signal analysis techniques and instrumentation are welcome.
