1 Canadian Seismograph Network Update Jim Lyons National Earthquake Hazards Program Geological Survey of Canada

2 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program Overview Canadian National Seismograph Network (CNSN): Changes from 2000 - 2002 CHASME deployment POLARIS (code =‘PO’) network

3 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program Glossary of Terms ESP3-c (Z|N|E), 100 sps, S-13 seismo EHZ1-c (Z), 100 sps, S-13 seismo SPZ1-c (Z), 60 sps, S-13 seismo BB 3-c, 40 sps, Guralp seismo HBB 3-c, 100 sps, Guralp seismo VBB 3-c, 40/20 sps, STS-1 seismo

4 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program CNSN Station Map 2002

5 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program Queen Charlotte Islands RUB Prince Rupert, BC moved to RUBB, upgraded from dialup EHZ to BB

6 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program Southwestern British Columbia HNB Haney, LZB Mt. Lazard, PFB Port Renfrew, SHB Sechelt, SNB Saturna Island, have all been upgraded from EHZ to BB New BB station installed at HOPB Hope

7 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program Yellowknife Array new BB station “YKW5” co-located with VBB YKW1 in November 2001 Re-survey for IMS certification showed many YKA sites had wrong * coordinates; most off by < 50 m, YKW1 1.75 km, YKW2 1.0 km NEIC, IDC, IRIS DMC informed

8 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program Charlevoix A11, A16, A21, A54, A61, A64 upgraded from ESP to HBB in Sept 2001

9 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program Other Changes GGN St. George, NB (former ECTN SPZ) re-installed as a CNSN BB VLDQ Val d’Or, PQ (40 km east of original ECTN VDQ) installed as a CNSN BB MNT Montreal, PQ, upgraded from EHZ to BB FNBC Fort Nelson, BC has moved approximately 25 km west; renamed to FNBB FSJ Fort St. James, BC was moved 3.5 km WNW and is now FSB GTO Geraldton, ON upgraded from regional analogue to EHZ

10 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program CNSN Summary Total CNSN and regional 2000 – 121 May 2002 – 124 +12 BB, -6 SP, -3 Analogue + 20 more temporary sites for CHASME and POLARIS experiments

11 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program CHASME Canadian High Arctic Seismic Monitoring Experiment

12 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program

13 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program

14 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program POLARIS Portable Observatories for Lithospheric Analysis and Research Investigating Seismicity a Canadian geophysical research consortium focused on investigation of the structure and dynamics of the Earth's lithosphere and the prediction of earthquake ground motion

15 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program POLARIS Will comprise 90 HBB seismographs in 3 sub-arrays Employ Nanometrics digitizers, VSAT telemetry, and acquisition systems for continuous real-time processing Deployments to last 4-5 years Will eventually include MT systems

16 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program POLARIS Network

17 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program POLARIS – Ontario Network

18 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program POLARIS – NWT Network

19 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program POLARIS – Western Network

20 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program NEHP Role Archive continuous real-time POLARIS waveform data Make data available via AutoDRM and real- time Internet feeds By fall 2002, house and operate a second Nanometrics Inc. VSAT hub (earthstation downlink)

21 Natural Resources Canada National Earthquake Hazards Program The End
