April 8, 2001SERGblack=obs.red=synth. My “normal” job is modeling, but today I want to discuss the data reliability.
Are our data accurate ? • Compare the instrumentally corrected records, sampling 100 Hz (5T accel. and the differentiated 3T) • Demonstrate complications Zeros and poles from factory calibration tests acceleration velocity
Vartholomio earthquake • Dec.2, 2002 • 04:58 • M=5.4 (PATNET) • Mw=5.6 (MEDNET)
3T clipped (2 mm/sec)
ZOOM 3T clipped (2 mm/sec)
MAMO clipped 3T viewed as non-clipped acceleration (suggesting a method how to correct clipping)
MAMO with the clipped part without
Noise (natural and instrumental) microseisms resolved by 3T, but not resolved by 5T
MAMO Minimum frequency available from the 5T accelerograph (M 5.4; 94 km)
Vartholomio earthquakeM 5.4at SERG (102 km) temporary GPS (digitizer) problem
SERG fit in EW as good as in Z (3T || 5T) some HF noise ?
SERG velocity not clipped velocity in SERG is lower than in MAMO, but acceleration is SERG is higher
SERG ZOOM a significant HF ‘ringing’ of 3T (not caused by clipping)
Local event recorded at SERG • Dec.10, 2002 • 16:47 • M 3.8 • SERG: D=13 km A=84o
Local M 3.8 at SERG(13 km) less problems on the Z-comp. of 3T, both in HF and LF
Too noisy LF signal on 5T even at f ~ 0.1 Hz M 3.8 recorded at D=13 km
Local event recorded at SERG • Nov. 13, 2002 • 21:55 • M 3.0 • SERG: D=7.5 km A=51o
SERG November 13, 2002; at 21:55; M 3 SERG: D=7.5 km, A=51o a rare disturbance (signal-generated) NS-comp. of 3T velocity EW-comp. of 3T velocity
occasionally, the LF signal on 3T is “as bad” as on 5T !
LF the LF signal on Z-comp. of 3T is OK
M 3 at SERG(7 km) HF noise on horizontal components of 3T
Local event recorded at UNIV • Nov. 26, 2002 • 12:13 • M 3.5 • UNIV: • D=13 km • A=209o
Nov. 26, 2002M 3.5 at UNIV(13 km) GPS problem
Local event recorded at UNIV • Apr. 18, 2003 • 12:49 • M 2.5 • UNIV: D=5 km A=126o
April 18, 2003 M 2.5at UNIV (5 km) GPS recovered “itself”
April 18, 2003 M 2.5 at UNIV(5 km) HF instrumental noise in 3T LF instrumental noise in 5T (complementary)
Conclusion • joint deployment of 3T BB and 5T SM revealed problems of both instruments • HF noise peak (30 Hz) on horiz. comp. of 3T • white accel. noise of 5T • occasional disturbances on horiz. 3T (tilt ?) • temporary timing (GPS, digitizer) problems
Instrumentally “corrected” records are rarely correct to every detail. Joint deployment of the 3T (BB) and 5T (SM) helps to reveal problems, and the instruments complement each other.
