Database Relations for Seismic Phases Reported by Stations in the Former Soviet Union

Abstract

This report is one of five Scientific Reports describing specific research projects conducted at Weston Observatory under Contract No. F19628-90- K-0035. The research conducted under this contract covers a range of topics related to seismology in general and to nuclear test monitoring in particular. This Scientific Report (No. 5) describes a project in which computer software was developed to produce database relations for seismic phases reported by stations in the former Soviet Union. programs written for this project read data extracted from computer files of seismic phase data compiled by the International Seismological Centre (ISC) and create database relations containing ISC phase data for a given station. These relations are stored in computer files in the format that is used by the database management system operating at the Center for Seismic Studies. In this report, the programs are described and examples are given to illustrate the type of investigation that can be done once a database has been created for a given set of stations.
