The purpose of this book is to get a practical understanding of the most
common processing techniques in earthquake seismology. The book deals
with manual methods and computer assisted methods. Each topic will be
introduced with the basic theory followed by practical examples and
exercises. There are manual exercises entirely based on the printed
material of the book, as well as computer exercises based on public
domain software. Most exercises are computer based. The software used,
as well as all test data are available from http: //extras.springer.com.
This book is intended for everyone processing earthquake data, both in
the observatory routine and in connection with research. Using the
exercises, the book can also be used as a basis for university courses
in earthquake processing.
Since the main emphasis is on processing, the theory will only be dealt
with to the extent needed to understand the processing steps, however
references will be given to where more extensive explanations can be
found.
Includes:
- Exercises
- Test data
- Public domain software (SEISAN)
