*For discussion of hurricanes (I'm currently keeping tabs on Katrina; she's been classed as a Category 3 hurricane earlier today and may strike the Florida Panhandle or Louisiana next), tornadoes, rainbow phenomena, lightning galleries; etc., etc.
Whoops...made a mistake in the Subject Line (capitalization).  Ah well. Too danged early in the morning.

When Katrina Hit California
Peter Gerstoft - gerstoft@ucsd.edu Marine Physical Laboratory University of California, San Diego Mike Fehler Los Alamos National Laboratory Karim Sabra University of California, San Diego Popular version of paper 2aAO6 Presented Tuesday morning, June 6, 2006 151st ASA Meeting, Providence, RI Scientific version of paper is available here: http://www.mpl.ucsd.edu/people/gerstoft/papers/katrina.pdf From half a continent away, we made an unusual seismic observation of a killer hurricane on Aug. 29, 2005 as Katrina bore down on New Orleans and the Gulf Coast. By using an array of 150 seismic stations in Southern California and a signal processing technique called beamforming to identify the seismic signal, we recorded a signal strength 1,000 times greater than that generated by volcanic tremor. http://www.acoustics.org/press/151st/Gerstoft.html -------------------- "After having some business dealings with men, I am occasionally chagrined,
and feel as if I had done some wrong, and it is hard to forget the ugly circumstance. I see that such intercourse long continued would make one thoroughly prosaic, hard, and coarse. But the longest intercourse with Nature, though in her rudest moods, does not thus harden and make coarse. A hard, sensible man whom we liken to a rock is indeed much harder than a rock. From hard, coarse, insensible men with whom I have no sympathy, I go to commune with the rocks, whose hearts are comparatively soft." - Henry David Thoreau, November 15, 1853 |
