  3. A research from 2023 reveals how large-N infrasound arrays and advanced CLEAN beamforming can detect seismic ground shaking remotely via atmospheric sound waves 🌍🔊. This method enhances earthquake monitoring and hazard assessment over wide areas. Read more: nature.com/articles/s43247-023 #Seismology #EarthquakeScience #Infrasound

  4. 🌍🔊 Earthquakes create infrasonic booms—low-frequency vibrations the Earth’s surface sends into the air like a giant speaker! These infrasounds can help quickly assess quake damage and distinguish natural quakes from underground explosions. Fascinating science below human hearing! 👂🌐 #EarthquakeScience #Infrasound #Geophysics livescience.com/24209-earthqua
