Infrasonic estimation of surf period
نویسندگان
چکیده
[1] Synchronous infrasonic, video, and wave height measurements were performed during high surf at Polihale beach, Kauai, on March 4–12, 2005. During the experiment, atmospheric sound levels in the 0.5–20 Hz frequency band were associated with large breaking ocean waves. The envelope of surf infrasound signals yields breaking wave periods comparable to those derived from nearshore sea surface elevation measurements. Our analysis confirms that individual plunging waves are partly responsible for the generation of surf infrasound. We demonstrate the potential to extract breaking wave period from a single, well sited infrasonic microphone. Citation: Aucan, J., D. Fee, and M.

Observations of surf infrasound in Hawai‘i
[1] Comparison of ocean buoy measurements with infrasonic array data collected during the epic winter of 2002–2003 shows a clear relationship between breaking ocean wave height and infrasonic signal levels. In addition, infrasonic arrays allow the identification of distinct breaking zones along the shoreline. Our observations suggest that infrasonic measurements can be used in conjunction with ...

متن کاملInfrasonic tremor observed at K lauea Volcano, Hawai’i
[1] Infrasonic array data collected at K lauea Volcano, Hawai’i, during November 12–21, 2002 indicate that the active vents and lava tube system near the P‘u ‘O ‘o vent complex emit almost continuous infrasound in the 0.3– 10 Hz frequency band. The spectral content of these infrasonic signals matches well that of synchronous seismic tremor. In sites protected from wind noise, significant signa...
متن کاملMobile Robot Navigation using SURF features
In this paper, we propose SURF feature based approach for mobile robot navigation. In this approach, we capture environmental images by using omni-directional camera and extract features of these images by using SURF. We treat these features as landmarks and estimate robot self-location and direction of motion. SURF features are invariant under scale change and rotation and robust under image n...
متن کاملInfrasound increases intracellular calcium concentration and induces apoptosis in hippocampi of adult rats.
In the present study, we determined the effect of infrasonic exposure on apoptosis and intracellular free Ca²⁺ ([Ca²⁺]i) levels in the hippocampus of adult rats. Adult rats were randomly divided into the control and infrasound exposure groups. For infrasound treatment, animals received infrasonic exposure at 90 (8 Hz) or 130 dB (8 Hz) for 2 h per day. Hippocampi were dissected, and isolated hip...
