TOL - STATION INSTRUMENTATION
3. Digital World Wide Standardized Seismograph Network - DWWSSN: [ DW ]
DATES OF OPERATION: 03 Nov 1981 to 05 Oct 1987
SEISMOMETER TYPE:
Benioff Short Period vertical seismometer, Geotech Model 1051
for SHZ data. Sprengnether long period seismometers (one vertical Model
S-5007-V previously Model 201 and two horizontal Model S-5007-H previously
Model 100) which are used for both long period and mid period data.
DIGITAL FORMAT:
16 bit integer data words for all components. Range: +32767 to -32768 counts.
EVENT DETECTOR ALGORITHIM:
The event detector used for the SHZ channel was developed at the ASL and is not
documented. The mid-period channels are detected on a straight forward
amplitude basis.
The Noise Study was done using 1993 data, consequently, it is only an estimation
for this generation of station instrumentation.
COMMENTS: A description of the Digital World Wide Standardized Seismograph
Network (DWWSSN) can be found in Peterson et al (1982).
