Methods and Applications of Signal Processing in Seismic Network Operations

Methods and Applications of Signal Processing in Seismic Network Operations Synopsis

This book deals with various theoretical and practical methods for real-time automatic signal processing in local (and regional) seismic networks and associated software developments, including extraction of small seismic signal from noisy observation by piecewise modeling and self-organizing state space modeling, determination of arrival time of S wave by locally multivariate stationary AT modeling, automatic interpretation of seismic signal by combining cumulativ sum and simulative annealing (CUSUM-SA), AR-filtering for local and teleseismic events, the currently high sensitivity seismic network running in Japan (Hi-net), PC-based computer package for automatic detection and location of earthquakes, real-time automatic seismic data-processing in seismic network running in eastern Sicily (Italy), the SIL (South Iceland Lowland) seismological data acquisition system and routine analysis in Iceland and Sweden.
