Explosions help probe elusive atmospheric waves

I gave a talk at the Acoustical Society of America meeting in Denver last week on our teams work exploring the use of infrasound to probe the atmosphere. Our paper was selected for a press conference, and a video of my 5-minute summary and short Q&A is posted here:

My wife said I did ‘OK’ in the press conference (she’s hard to please!), but she was much more enthusiastic about the write up by Becky Ferreira at VICE at the link below:

While I got most of the press, I must acknowledge that most of the work was done by postdoc Gil Averbuch and graduate student Miro Giannone!
