MICROBAROGRAPH MEASUREMENTS

Abstract

Air-pressure signals from the underground Gnome detonation were investigated with on-site pressure gages and off-site microbarographs. Unusual weather and an insufficient number of measurement stations resulted in no off- site recordings. Useful data were obtained on site to further aid in source descriptions from underground blasts.
