Infrasound Technology Workshop – Tokyo, November Example of gravity waves – bores at I27DE

Infrasound Technology Workshop – Tokyo, November Comparison of detected signals, August/September 2004 wind microbaroms mountain associated waves gravity waves infrasound mb and maw signals are (completely) decoupled infrasound signals and gravity waves are not correlated trace velocity of gw signals indicates limits of infrasound detection capability maw: V T {gw} < 10 m/s; mb: V T {gw} < 20 m/s are measured wind and gw signals correlated?!

Infrasound Technology Workshop – Tokyo, November Wave parameters of gravity waves and measured wind β=82°±22° V T =17±7 m/s A=0.16 Pa β=238°±14° V T =9±6 m/s A=0.09 Pa

Infrasound Technology Workshop – Tokyo, November  I27DE has demonstrated that its configuration and design are well suited for high wind conditions. It has been operated for more than 4.5 years without any major problems.  The average detection threshold of mb-signals can be estimated at wind speeds of 16 m/s, i.e., at almost 85 % of the time I27DE have the capability to detect infrasound signals showing typical mb-signal amplitudes.  Detection of mb-signals correlates well with a stable stratospheric duct obtained with HWM-93 showing easterly directions during the Antarctic summer (December & January) and westerly at other time of the year.  An anomaly in the number of detections and trace velocity was observed for mb-signals during the Antarctic winter, the reason for probable absence of the stratospheric duct is currently not clear.  mw-Signals are decoupled from mb detections in winter times, however regard during Antarctic summer mw detections are dominated by mb-signals. Moreover another source, being independent of stratospheric duct, exists in the direction of ~120°. Conclusions I

Infrasound Technology Workshop – Tokyo, November  gw-signals are showing large amplitudes (gwE: 0.16 Pa, gwW: 0.09 Pa). These signals are NOT correlated to the stratospheric duct.  gw-signals are correlated to measured wind speed, both with respect to speed and direction.  Infrasound signals (mb + mw) are not correlated with gravity waves.  The trace velocity of gw-signals indicates limits of infrasound detection capability (mw: V T {gw} < 10 m/s; mb: V T {gw} < 20 m/s).  The data of all infrasound stations, especially those which are linked to the peri-Antarctic belt, should to be analyzed on a broad frequency range including gw-signals (50 – 500 s). Conclusions II
