Corrected Tilt Calculation For Atmospheric Pressure-Induced Seismic Noise, Richard Raspet, Craig J. Hickey, Bipin Koirala

Faculty and Student Publications

In a literature search on the coupling of wind-generated pressure fluctuations into seismic noise, it was noticed that the expression for the angular tilt induced by pressure fluctuations in the seminal paper “A preliminary investigation into the relationship between long-period seismic noise and local fluctuations in the atmospheric pressure” by G. G. Sorrells was only valid at the surface. A search of the literature which cites the Sorrells paper was performed to see if any subsequent research corrected this error, and what effect the error might have on the research. A recent paper by Tanimoto and Wang notes the correct …
