Acoustic imaging
Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-003240
The process of creating visual representations of objects or environments using sound waves. In atmospheric science, this can involve using acoustic techniques to visualize atmospheric structures, such as temperature inversions or turbulent eddies. While less common than radar or lidar for atmospheric imaging, it offers unique insights into sound propagation and atmospheric acoustics.
