Sentences with phrase «seismic noise»

Over a six - month period they recorded the ambient seismic noise, the natural vibrations which usually are regarded as disturbing signals.

They are part of the background seismic noise in coastal areas.

The scientists developed an algorithm to distinguish rockfalls from other sources of seismic noise, like rainstorms, avalanches, and earthquakes.

As the falling mountain hit the ocean, it created enough seismic noise to dupe sensors and generate the waves that inundated Nuugaatsiaq.

Seismic noise occurs continuously, and is sensitive to changes that would otherwise have been missed.

Using a technique called «seismic noise interferometry» combined with geophysical measurements, the researchers measured the energy moving through a volcano.

«This is the first time that we've been able to compare seismic noise with deformation over such a long period, and the strong correlation between the two shows that this could be a new way of predicting volcanic eruptions,» said Donaldson.

The Cambridge researchers used seismic noise to detect what was controlling Kīlauea's movement.

Anthony, R., Aster, R., Wiens, D., Nyblade, A., Rowe, C., Seismic noise levels across Antarctica, Eos Trans.

Sun, X., Wiens, D., Nyblade, A., Anandakrishnan, S., Aster, R., Chaput, J., Huerta, A., Wilson, T., Three dimensional crust and upper mantle velocity structure of Antarctica from seismic noise correlation, Eos Trans.

Scientists did not initially notice the unusual pattern, Peng said, because the aftershocks were small (many less than magnitude 2) and the hurricane itself produced a lot of seismic noise.

Lin and Wu developed the computational tools that would help find useful signals among the seismic noise without disturbing the sensitive environment in the Upper Geyser Basin.

On the ground, Lück says, the arms of laser interferometers are unlikely to ever exceed 50 kilometers — past that, seismic noise, Earth's curvature, imperfect optics and the great expense of digging deep tunnels would outweigh any conceivable scientific gains.

To confirm the findings, Petrobras's computer engineers have spent years developing software to correct for distortions — both sound wave reflections and seismic noise — that salt introduces in the readings.

But by pairing sensors together, the researchers were able to observe energy passing between the two, therefore allowing them to isolate the seismic noise that was coming from the volcano.

Seismic noise is a persistent low - level vibration in the Earth, caused by everything from earthquakes to waves in the ocean, and can often be read on a single sensor as random noise.

«The seismic noise environment of Antarctica.»

Anthony, R., Aster, R., Wiens, D., Nyblade, A., ANandakrishnan, S., Winberry, J.P., Huerta, A., Wilson, T., The seismic noise environment of the Antarctic and the influence of instrumentation techniques, Seismol.

That didn't happen here, although one proposed farm was abandoned because the vibration from the wind turbines would have increased the «seismic noise» at the Laser Interferometry Gravitational Observatory», half of which is located on the Hanford Site, looking for gravitational waves.
