THE ATMOSPHERIC ACOUSTIC STRUCTURE OF THE SUBPOLAR FALL,
Abstract
Data for altitudes up to 60 km over Fort Greely, Alaska, are analyzed and presented as a representation of the atmospheric acoustic structure for subpolar northern hemisphere latitudes. Mean component sonic profiles are constructed and discussed. Results show that regional and seasonal acoustic profiles can be established with data now available, and that layers and zones of peculiar sonic features can be located and identified. The report points to the desirability of more inclusive and comprehensive treatment of atmospheric acoustic data and outlines one such study that is currently being made at White Sands Missile Range.
