Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program Session III.3 Global and Local Arrays May 10, 2006 Jakarta, Indonesia

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program Topics covered:  Types of seismic arrays  How arrays are used  Example global networks

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program Seismic array:  Has common time base (one clock)  Has common recording center  Waves remain coherent as they propagate across the array

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program An array can be used as an antenna to determine the direction from which the seismic waves arrive. This process, called beamforming, tells where the earthquake is located.

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program Seismic network:  Each station’s clock is independent  Data recording may be at the station or at a common data center  Waves may not be coherent as they propagate across the network

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program In a network, the location of an earthquake is found by triangulation. Information from all stations is used.

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program High frequency waves attenuate (damp out) rapidly with distance. Low frequency waves diminish in amplitude more slowly with distance traveled. The Earth acts like a filter!

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program IRIS GSN SYSTEM EQUIVALENT EARTH PEAK ACCELERATION ( 20 LOG M/SEC 2 ) PERIOD (SECONDS) Global networks choose instruments capable of recording long period waves. Local arrays may use short period sensors to record local earthquakes.

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program The 2004 Sumatra- Andaman Isl quake radiated very long period seismic waves that were recorded by global networks.

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program GSN Goals:  develop high quality seismic data acquisition equipment deploy systems globally at 2000 km spacing make data openly available to all who request a copy

A note on noise at seismic stations. The quietest stations in the world are on continents.

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program Stations near the ocean are noisier.

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program If possible, locate seismic stations away from the coast where noise conditions are better (noise is lower).

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program Another important subject… Remember the DAS?

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program Other equipment needed:  Clock to time the data  “DAS” to convert electric current to numbers for a computer to process

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program The DAS converts electrical current from the seismometer into numbers to be processed by the computer. The electrical current from the seismometer is continuous, but the DAS produces numbers only at set intervals of time, the digitization rate. The DAS bundles these numbers into a packet called a data record.

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program The DAS converts electrical current into numbers.

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program How the DAS bundles the data depends upon the computer programs running inside the DAS. Some DASs produce a record containing data for a fixed period of time. Other DASs produce a record of a fixed size. In this case, the period of time contained varies from record to record because the data are compressed.

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program Data records are passed from computer to computer using data telemetry methods. Data centers may pass data to computers from other organizations. By sharing data, both organizations obtain more information.

Sri Lanka Earthquake & Tsunami Warning Training Program Data center software is quite complex. Several packages exist, including this commercial one.
