Results of the assessment of capabilities of seismic | |
networks and the design of networks show that a network's | |
location accuracy approaches a near-maximum when stations | |
are distributed over an azimuthal sector of about 180 deg | |
and that good depth determination requires stations | |
within about 15 deg of the focus of the event. The latter | |
suggests that global networks should include 100 or more | |
seismological stations if accurate depth estimation is | |
important. A study of about 100 local and regional events | |
detected by NORESS is a systematic effort to test | |
analytical methods being developed for extracting | |
features from seismic waveforms that can be used to | |
identify regional phases, and for recognizing repeated | |
events from a single source such as quarry blasts. The | |
methods under evaluation includes the extraction of | |
frequency-domain spectral parameters, and particle motion | |
information. Substantial effort was devoted to developing | |
concepts and preparing for experiments in international | |
exchange of of seismic waveform data. This work included | |
developing the technical concepts for a potential global | |
seismic monitoring system. The Center has been heavily | |
involved in an examination of its database management | |
system and the development of extensions to handle new | |
types of data-principally data from seismic arrays and | |
data anticipated from forthcoming GSE experiments. | |
Keywords: Nuclear explosion monitoring, Seismic wave | |
