Infrasound station IS34 at Songino is part of the International Monitoring System for detecting nuclear test explosions. The station employs an array of eight sensing elements (central element H1, inner elements H2-H4 and outer elements H5-H8) to monitor low-frequency sound waves generated by natural and man-made events. The recordings are sent to the International Data Centre in Vienna, Austria.
