Propagation of sound through the Earth's atmosphereThe infrasonic signatures generated by the main blade slap rate of a helicoper were used in an effort to detect infrasound generated by clear air turbulence. The artificially produced infrasound and the response of the data acquisition system used are analyzed. Flight procedures used by the pilot are described and the helicopter flight information is tabulated. Graphs show the relative frequency amplitudes obtained at various microphone locations.
