Long Range Seismic Measurements

Abstract

The progress of the Long-Range Seismic Measurements (LRSM) Program during the period 1 January 1970 through 31 October 1971 is described. At the beginning of the report period, there were seven mobile observatories and eleven portable seismograph systems in the LRSM program. These seismograph systems participated in related programs and experiments such as MIRACLE PLAY - HUMID WATER, HANDLEY, and CANNIKIN. Six portable strain systems were operated at the Nevada Test Site. Several special studies were conducted - deep hole, long- period instrumentation evaluation; long-period noise study at Fairbanks, Alaska; atmospherically-generated seismic noise study at Grand Saline, Texas, and Wills Point, Texas.
