Bloop was an ultra-low-frequency, high amplitude underwater sound detected by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in 1997. [1] .

Usually, researchers would use the sounds recorded to learn about seismic activity and marine animals, but the mysterious bloop was something different. The NOAA described the noise as rising...

2024年6月16日 · "The Bloop" is the given name of a mysterious underwater sound recorded in the 90s. Years later, NOAA scientists discovered that this sound emanated from an iceberg cracking and breaking away from an Antarctic glacier.

2017年10月17日 · In 1997, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration discovered an unusual, ultra-low-frequency sound emanating from a point off the southern coast of Chile. It was the loudest unidentified...

Although Bloops are some of the loudest sounds of any type ever recorded in Earth's oceans, their origin remains unknown. The Bloop sound was placed as occurring several times off the southern...

2012年11月29日 · In 1997, the Bloop was heard on hydrophones across the Pacific. It was a loud, ultra-low frequency sound that was heard at listening stations underwater over 5,000km apart, and one of...

2023年12月31日 · "The Bloop was the sound of an icequake – an iceberg cracking and breaking away from an Antarctic glacier!" In recent years, new hydrophones operated by NOAA have recorded similar noises to the Bloop in the southern ocean and the Atlantic, sounds that were also made by icequakes.

In 1997, a sound was detected by hydrophones located over 5,000 kilometers apart in the Pacific Ocean. The sound was named “The Bloop” due to its distinctive sound profile. Scientists initially thought that the sound was produced by a large sea creature, such as the giant squid.

Icequakes (Bloop) The broad spectrum sounds recorded in the summer of 1997 are consistent with icequakes generated by large icebergs as they crack and fracture. NOAA hydrophones deployed in the Scotia Sea detected numerous icequakes with spectrograms very similar to …
