CONSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR THE LONG PERIOD SIGNAL ACQUISITION SYSTEM OF THE MONTANA LARGE APERTURE SEISMIC ARRAY.

Abstract

The objective of the Large Aperture Seismic Array (LASA) is to provide improved capability for discrimination between nuclear explosions and earthquakes. The large number of sensors and the large apertures provided by the array design promise a significant reduction of seismic noise and a consequent significant increase in signal-to-noise ratios when array-processing techniques are applied. This manual describes the instrumentation and field techniques used in installing the LASA LP systems.
