Recent Advances in Seismoacoustic Methods for Explosion Monitoring

Session ID#: 158622

Session Description:
Seismoacoustic techniques are critical for studying explosive sources and the associated seismic and acoustic wave propagation. This session focuses on methods relevant to monitoring technologies such as seismoacoustic signal generation, signal propagation though the solid Earth, oceans, atmosphere and space, as well as improved signal analysis techniques. We invite contributions focused on methods for the detection, location, discrimination, and yield estimation of seismoacoustic events of interest drawing on advances in source physics models and signal processing.  We welcome presentations on physics-based seismic, infrasound and overpressure modeling techniques which advance our understanding of the generation and propagation of seismic and acoustic signals, models of wave-coupling between the solid earth and atmosphere, and near-field fluid dynamics modeling. We seek contributions to improvement of detection and source discrimination techniques by leveraging multiple signal features and combining phenomenologies through data fusion, machine learning, and integration of advanced signal processing techniques into data processing pipelines
