OK, so what exactly are we listening to here? Atmospheric open-air microphones? Piezoelectric microphones? Sonified seismic data? A combination?

The article didn’t seem to shed any light on what’s going on exactly.

There isn’t a need for a microphone on mars because of the thin atmosphere. Atmospheric phenomena are recorded through their vibrations on the ground.
