Why are precomputed monthly average travel time tables poor for operational infrasound source location calculations? Expert knowledge suggests that the performance of automated infrasound event association and source location algorithms will be greatly improved by the ability to continual update station travel time curves to properly account for the seasonal/daily/hourly changes of the atmospheric state. - thus - Advocate for, develop, and integrate this capability into automated source location operations to reduced false alarm rates and improved network detection capability.

Requirements Knowledge of the atmospheric state. Procedures for calculating infrasound propagation characteristics. Procedures for utilization of travel time curves in automated event association and location algorithms. Validation. Systems integration.

Knowledge of the Atmospheric State HWM-93 –empirical climatology –data sparse –low resolution –global –time dependent –0 to 500 km Numerical weather prediction –operational –data rich –high-resolution –global/regional –4x daily –0 to 55/85 km NOAA-GSF, ECMWF, NASA-GEOS5, NOGAPS.

Conclusions Over the past 5 years we have developed and compiled reasonably good knowledge of the atmospheric state for infrasound propagation calculations. We have also developed and exercised robust procedures for calculating local infrasound propagation characteristics. Precomputed monthly average travel time tables and climatology are poor for operational infrasound source location calculations - performance of automated infrasound event association and source location algorithms will be greatly improved by the ability to continual update station travel time curves to properly account for the seasonal/daily/hourly changes of the atmospheric state

Challenges Integration of propagation code/travel times results into automated event association algorithms. Data volume and computational resource. Validation, Validation, Validation
