Infrasound Detection of Meteor Events
Posted: Tue Aug 02, 2011 5:24 pmHi,
The August 2011 Jodcast includes a report of the multi-station infrasound detection of a major meteoric event from October 8th 2009 over Indonesia. You can read the abstract and purchase the full paper, Infrasonic detection of a near-Earth object impact over Indonesia on 8 October 2009 by Silber, Pichon and Brown here. There's more information on this event here including a link to a news report showing the smoke trail.
Given that there's an infrasound station close the recent Kenyan fall, I've been looking for reports relating to the detection of that. None see so far...
Given our cloudy climate I'm tempted to look into setting up a basic infrasound detector.
