2. China Digital Seismograph Network (CDSN) • Sino-US cooperative • Designed in 1983 • Started operation in 1986 • Upgraded in1993 to 2001 • A main partner of GSN

3. China Digital Seismograph Network

4. A national projectLaunched by CEA for updating the seismological observation facilities into digital seismological observation systemsSupported by the central government and local governments China Digital Seismological Observation System (CDSOS) (1996-2000)

5. China Digital Seismological Observation System (CDSOS) National Digital Seismograph Network (NDSN) 48 real-time digital seismic stations through satellite links 28 auxiliary stations by CD Regional Digital Seismograph Network (RDSN) Regional Telemetered Digital Seismograph Networks (RTDSN) 20 Networks with 267 stations Telemetered Digital Seismograph Network in Capital region: 107 stations Portable Digital Seismograph Network (PDSN) 100 portable stations

11. Instruments National Digital Seismograph Network (NDSN) JCZ-1: flat velocity response from 360 s to 20 Hz, sampling rate: 50 sps CTS-1: flat velocity response from 120 s to 20 Hz, sampling rate: 50 sps STS-1: flat velocity response from 360 s to 8.5 Hz , sampling rate: 20 sps Regional Telemetered Digital Seismograph Networks (RTDSN) FBS-3: flat velocity response from 20 s to 20 Hz, sampling rate: 50 sps FSS-3: flat velocity response from 1s to 20 Hz, sampling rate: 50 sps Portable Digital Seismograph Stations FSS-3: flat velocity response from 1s to 20 Hz, sampling rate: 50 sps

12. China Digital Seismological Observation System(by the end of 2005) National Digital Seismograph Network (NDSN) Real-time digital seismic stations through satellite links: 152 stations (now 48) Regional Telemetered Digital Seismograph Networks (RTDSN) 31 Networks (now 20) with 678 stations (now 267) Portable Digital Seismograph Stations 800 stations (now 100)

13. National Digital Seismograph Network(152 stations by the end of 2005) Legend To be installed Existing

14. Regional Digital Seismograph Network (678 stations by the end of 2005)

15. Development Program(2006-2020) For studies of global seismicity (72 stations) 24 existing stations 7 stations by the end of 2005 41 stations will be established in 2006-2020. 200 stations and 5 seismic arrays with spacing between stations of 200-250km. by the end of 2005: 150 stations and 2 arrays In Tibetan Plateau, the spacing between the stations will be about 400km.

16. Development Program(2006-2020) Regional telemetered digital seismograph networks In the most densely populated and/or earthquake-prone areas of China will be greatly intensified. Existing: 785 (678+107) regional stations By the end of 2005:1000 regional stations 2006-2020 : 1689 regional stations Spacing between stations: about 10km 2006-2020 : 4000 strong motion stations.

17. Development Program(2006-2020) Monitoring seismicity associated with mining activity, reservoir, nuclear power plant, oil-field, etc. Denser spaced seismograph networks sponsored and operated by industrial agencies are considered to be important supplements to the NDSN and to the regional telemetered digital seismograph networks.
