Measure of infrasound across Alberta

The goal of this project will be to explore the levels of infrasound in various parts of the province. Infrasound is a low frequency sound below 20Hz that can be found naturally in traffic, low-rumbling pipes, and during thunderstorms among other sources. Infrasound has been associated with feelings of fear and anxiety, but also feelings of awe and wonder. In this project, the student will measure infrasound in naturally occurring settings as well as in settings such as concerts, public lecture halls, and heavy traffic/LRT areas.
