It is known long ago that atmospheric processes lead to generation of the seismic signals. But for a long time seismologists considered that only as a noise. In the recent years, the additional motivations appeared for study of such signals. There are two different aspects: 1) Using of signals with a low amplitude. Seismic signals as a source of information (prompt recording of hazardous phenomena, monitoring, warning system, forecasting for very short periods). 2) Dramatic effects. Possible influence of atmospheric processes on a seismic activity. So, seismic manifestations of atmospheric processes are needed to investigate – both as such useful signals and as a noise. The article presents some of the relevant results of the authors of recent years.
