Norwegian Seismic Array (NORSAR)

Abstract

This report describes the operation and research activities at the Norwegian Seismic Array (NORSAR) for the period from 1 October 1978 to 31 March 1979. The performance of the NORSAR online DP system has changed very little from the previous reporting period; the uptime was 94.1% as compared to 93.7% for the foregoing half year. The number of stops related to the SPS has increased with more than 50%, however, very few stops lasted for several hours. The Event Processor has continued its production of a monthly seismic bulletin; an average of 7.9 events/day have been reported which is a normal winter-time decrease from 10.8 events/day reported in the foregoing 6 months. The operation of the data center has been characterized by an increased load on the B- computer, which has in many cases forced the users to run their research jobs outside office hours.
