We give a detailed review of developments in atmospheric acoustics of the last decade. These developments include new ways to use refractive effects, studies of phase and amplitude fluctuations during propagation of sound along a path, nonlinear effects near high‐powered acoustic antennas, problems related to noise, insights into large‐scale atmospheric processes gained from infrasound, applications dependent on the Doppler frequency shift, and hybrid devices using both acoustic and electromagnetic waves. The introduction of the echosonde approximately 10 years ago results in the considerable emphasis given to advances in active acoustic remote sensing of atmospheric structure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
