SEISMIC DISCRIMINATION

Abstract

Studies were made of the ability of a single Large Aperture Seismic Array (LASA) station to detect and roughly locate teleseismic events and to generate outputs derived from various long- and short-period seismogram parameters, particularly those related to exact epicenter location and source discrimination. The behavior of networks that exchange such data and that consist of both small and large array stations has begun to receive attention. Computer-controlled automatic monitoring and maintenance of large seismometer arrays are discussed.
