. Compendium of meteorology. Meteorology. Fig. 6.—Record at Corpus Christi for July 9, 1947, showing increase in amplitude of microseisms on lower portion of record at the time of a local thunderstorm. Time breaks are at 15-sec intervals. Suggestions as to the mechanism by which these microseisms are produced have been offered by Banerji, Gherzi, Macelwane, Longuet-Higgins, and others. But the observations necessary to test the validity of any one of them are lackiag. In most cases the accumulation of the necessary critical data would be both difficult and costly.
