Description for Microseismic and Infrasound Waves
Paperback. An introduction to the field of microseismic studies, which involves three main disciplines: oceanography, meteorology and seismology. The text explores techniques for locating sources of excitation and describes microseismic applications in navigation and weather forecasting. Series: Research Reports in Physics. Num Pages: 150 pages, 8 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PHDS; PHVG; RBC; RBKC; RBP. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 8. Weight in Grams: 240.
In the early 1950s microseisms, with characteristic amplitudes of several micro meters, were considered insignificant relative to powerful destructive earthquakes. They were understood to be noise, as natural fluctuations, not carrying any in formation and distorting recordings on seismograms. Intensive investigations over subsequent decades have shown, however, that microseisins are only a single facet of a huge complex of phenomena comprising cyclone movement over oceans, sea roughness, infrasound, geomagnetic micropulsations, terrestial of these phenomena proved to be confined in time currents, etc. The source and space, whereas their effects propagated over global distances. This could be interpreted as a case ... Read more
