Cumberland Plateau Observatory

Abstract

Work under this project has been a continuation of the previous years effect under Project VT/5054 and has been primarily directed toward improving the use of small diameter seismic arrays in the teleseismic event detection problem. During this last year the feasibility and effectiveness of on-line automatic detection processing was investigated through the evaluation of the CPO Auxiliary Processor. This unit - a digital computing device fabricated during late 1966 -interfaces with the CPO processor. Other tasks included the continued evaluation of the MCF processor to determine the impact of Wiener signal extraction processing on the station detection capability, the continued multidimensional analysis of the CPO ambient noise field to verify noise properties affecting performance of the MCF processor, and the investigation of techniques designed to enhance visual presentation of seismic data.
