Seismic equivalents of volcanic jet scaling laws and multipoles in acoustics

December 22, 2017

We establish analogies between equivalent source theory in seismology (moment-tensor and single-force sources) and acoustics (monopoles, dipoles and quadrupoles) in the context of volcanic eruption signals. Although infrasound (acoustic waves
