ATMOSPHERIC WAVES FROM U.S.S.R. NUCLEAR TEST EXPLOSIONS IN 1962

Photographic reproductions of the records of the A 1 wave systems at Saskatoon (52.1 °N., 106.6 °W.) from five nuclear test explosions in Novaya Zemlya during the summer of 1962 are given. Notable differences exist between some of the records. These may be due to differences in the heights of the ex...

Description
Summary:Photographic reproductions of the records of the A 1 wave systems at Saskatoon (52.1 °N., 106.6 °W.) from five nuclear test explosions in Novaya Zemlya during the summer of 1962 are given. Notable differences exist between some of the records. These may be due to differences in the heights of the explosions. Dispersion curves of group velocity against period are shown. Waves ranged in period from 6.0 to 0.8 minutes; group velocities from 275 to 313 m/sec.
