Directly measured, standardized, or well-supported in mainstream scientific or technical literature.

The underlying cycle is measurable, but the audible tone is an octave-transposed mapping used for comparison, listening, and practice rather than a naturally audible emission.

Review the evidence model

Electromagnetic atmospheric impulses (spherics) measured by Hans Baumer at Pfaffenhofen/Ilm. The spectral maxima occur at frequencies that are exact octave tones of Earth's rotation. The fundamental spheric at 4150.84 Hz corresponds to the note C (129.71 Hz when octave-shifted down 5 octaves), matching Earth rotation's diatonic tone within 0.73 parts per thousand.
