This is what an Antarctic Ice Shelf sounds like
Published on Oct 16, 2018 American Geophysical Union (AGU)
Synth sounds in nature. Dude/dudette with a modular in a cave under the ice sheets somewhere.
"Winds blowing across snow dunes on Antarctica’s Ross Ice Shelf cause the massive ice slab’s surface to vibrate, producing a near-constant drumroll of seismic “tones” scientists could potentially use to monitor changes in the ice shelf from afar, according to new research.
The ice shelf’s “song” is too low in frequency to be heard by human ears, but it has been made audible here by geophysicist and mathematician Julien Chaput, who sped up a 2015 recording of the ice shelf’s vibrations about 1,200 times."
