Near Field Accelerometer Array

Abstract

This is the final report for Contract F44620-75-C-0049 and outlines the accomplishments of the past two years. The near field array operated satisfactorily throughout the contract period but no large earthquakes occurred near the array. A detailed study of seismicity in the Stone Canyon-Bear Valley region of the San Andreas fault suggests a rather regular recurrence time of 11 years for large earthquakes. The body wave-surface wave discriminant continues to be effective for NTS data in the small to medium magnitude range.
