Summary & Purpose
These data are a supplement to the MS thesis, “Variability of Howitzer Artillery Infrasound Recorded in Little Cottonwood Canyon, Utah”, by Department of Geosciences student, Owen Walsh. Data provided are for howitzer artillery infrasound signals recorded by six infrasound microphones (infraBSU v2) from March 22 through April 5, 2023 in Little Cottonwood Canyon, Utah, USA. This dataset consists of 142, 20-second signals sampled at 100 Hz. Data provided have been filtered using a 0.5 Hz (2-second) highpass, acausal, 2-pole butterworth filter.
