    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unexplained_sounds

    Upsweep is an unidentified sound detected on the American NOAA's equatorial autonomous hydrophone arrays. This sound was present when the Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory began recording its sound surveillance system, SOSUS, in August 1991. It consists of a long train of narrow-band upsweeping sounds of several seconds in duration each.

  4. Microbarom - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbarom

    The ocean motion generated by this "equivalent pressure" is then transmitted to the atmosphere. If the wave groups travel faster than the sound speed, microbaroms are generated, with propagation directions closer to the vertical for the faster wave groups. Pressure field in the ocean and atmosphere associated to groups made by opposing wave trains.

  5. Ambience (sound recording) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ambience_(sound_recording)

    In filmmaking, ambience (also known as atmosphere, atmos, or background) consists of the sounds of a given location or space. [1] It is the opposite of "silence". Ambience is similar to presence, but is distinguished by the existence of explicit background noise in ambience recordings, as opposed to the perceived "silence" of presence recordings.

  6. Underwater acoustics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Underwater_acoustics

    Output of a computer model of underwater acoustic propagation in a simplified ocean environment. A seafloor map produced by multibeam sonar. Underwater acoustics (also known as hydroacoustics) is the study of the propagation of sound in water and the interaction of the mechanical waves that constitute sound with the water, its contents and its boundaries.

  7. SOFAR channel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOFAR_channel

    The SOFAR channel (short for sound fixing and ranging channel), or deep sound channel (DSC), [1] is a horizontal layer of water in the ocean at which depth the speed of sound is at its minimum. The SOFAR channel acts as a waveguide for sound, and low frequency sound waves within the channel may travel thousands of miles before dissipating.

  8. Seashell resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seashell_resonance

    The ocean-like quality of seashell resonance is due in part to the similarity between airflow and ocean movement sounds. The association of seashells with the ocean likely plays a further role. Resonators attenuate or emphasize some ambient noise frequencies in the environment, including airflow within the resonator and sound originating from ...

  9. Atmospheric tide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_tide

    A similar phenomenon to ocean waves breaking on a beach, the energy dissipates into the background atmosphere. Molecular diffusion also becomes increasingly important at higher levels in the lower thermosphere as the mean free path increases in the rarefied atmosphere.
