RESEARCH IN SIESMOLOGY RELATED TO THE COLUMBIA OCEAN-BOTTOM SEISMOGRAPH.

Abstract

The report contains results of research conducted on data from the Columbia Ocean-Bottom Seismograph. The report describes the history of the ocean-bottom seismograph, the location and instrumentation of OBS-III, the nature of research conducted under this contract and the personnel associated with the contract. The report also outlines results of research in the areas of spectral and correlation analysis, local earthquake studies, particle motion studies, detection ability studies, construction of a station log of events, microseism analysis and studies of interesting arrivals in local earthquake wave trains. Suggestions for further research related to an ocean-bottom seismograph are also discussed. (Author)
