The Laboratories have completed cataloguing the records of an infrasound-monitoring program that ran through the 1980s and concluded in 1989. Its instruments were reassigned to successor programs, and its data has been preserved in full in the institute archive.

The newly indexed material includes station logs, calibration sheets, maintenance notes, selected correspondence, and preservation-copy references for the associated recordings. The finding aid does not reopen the program or imply that the historical data is part of a current operations stream.

Access conditions

  • Requests are handled by the records office and reviewed for researcher qualification and record condition.
  • Rare or fragile holdings may be provided only as supervised reading-room access.
  • Third-party correspondence and site-security material may remain restricted.
  • Citations should use the finding-aid title and box or reel number supplied by the records office.

The indexed records are available to researchers on request alongside the rest of the historical holdings. Inquiries should be directed to External Affairs or the records office.
