Difficult to study for several reasons, Rich. Combined reasons are
that the sound occurs intermittently and one has to be present and
have technology capable of capturing the signature the moment it
occurs. I tried to get it with a combo hydrophone and TCD D-10DAT Pro
I knew was capable of recording infrasound, but didn't get to it fast
enough. By the time the set up was running, it was too late - the
sound had stopped.
