System Performance Of Absolute Quartz-Crystal Barometers With Sub-Microbar Precision, Ganesh Kumar Subramanian Ananthanarayanan
System Performance Of Absolute Quartz-Crystal Barometers With Sub-Microbar Precision, Ganesh Kumar Subramanian Ananthanarayanan
Masters Theses 1911 - February 2014
In this thesis, the performance of absolute quartz-crystal barometers is presented, and their ability to measure, with sub-microbar precision, atmospheric pressure fluctuations with periods as short as a few seconds is demonstrated. The first observations of ocean-generated atmospheric infrasound with periods of about 5 s and sub-microbar amplitudes, called microbaroms, using single absolute barometers are presented. These barometers can measure microbaroms with amplitudes down to 50 nanobars and the 1-h estimates of microbarom amplitudes calculated from data collected independently with three collocated barometers differed by only a few nanobars. The observed microbaroms have amplitudes between 0.2 microbars and 1 microbar …
