Dataset for "Yield Estimation of the August 2020 Beirut Explosion by Using Physics-Based Propagation Simulations of Regional Infrasound"
<p>Dataset for “Yield Estimation of the August 2020 Beirut Explosion by Using<br> Physics-Based Propagation Simulations of Regional Infrasound”</p> <p>Authors: Keehoon Kim and Michael E. Pasyanos</p> <p>Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Livermore, CA, USA</p> <p>Description<br> This datset includes the infrasound waveform data recorded by the array at the<br> Mt. Meron (IMA) in Israel. A five-element array deployed by the National Data<br> Center of Israel (Fee et al., 2013), and all stations had Martec Tekelec MB2005<br> sensors which have a flat frequency response in the infrasound band (0.1–20Hz)<br> (Ponceau and Bosca, 2010). The infrasound data was provided by the National<br> Data Center of Israel, Soreq Nuclear Research Center, and the pressure<br> recordings only relevant to the 2020 Beirut explosion were uploaded to the<br> public repository (https://zenodo.org).</p> <p>File Description<br> IMA_array_infrasound_waveform.txt Pressure values in ASCII format for 5 stations</p> <p>Acknowledgments<br> This research was performed by the support from the U.S. Department of Energy,<br> National Nuclear Security Administration, Office of Defense Nuclear<br> Nonproliferation, Research and Development under the auspices of the U.S.<br> Department of Energy by the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory under<br> Contract Number DE-AC52-07NA27344.
