  1. Serendipitously recorded at MGL Using 5 Newly Built Pet Meters (The meters were not ready for shipment) Japan Earth-QuakeNovember 15, 2006

  2. Earth-quake recorded with seismometers in Salt-Lake City, UT Earth-quake recorded with PET 28 gravity meter in Lafayette, CO

  3. Pre-Earthquake Data (Meters are not yet ready to ship) *Time series data (1s) prior to earth quake. Note that PET 35 has high drift

  4. After onset of Earthquake (4 hour record, 1s data) * All Plotted on Same Scale (18 mGal scale)

  5. Onset of earthquake from PET 28 (6 minutes)

  6. All Pet Meters (Time series data - 15 minutes during earthquake)

  7. Five PET meters during earth-quake Plotted with original feedback offsets of meters (±10 mGal)

  8. Cross covariance (± 5minutes Lag) *Correlation is limited to about 90-98% because of clock differences (±0.5s)

  9. Cross correlation (± 5minutes Lag) Continued…. *Correlation is limited to about 90-98% because of clock differences (±0.5s)

  10. Spectrum of 1 hour of data (after start of earthquake) Linear-Linear Plot

  11. Spectrum of 1 hour of data (after start of earthquake) Linear-Log Plot Continued….

  12. Spectrum of 1 hour of data (after start of earthquake) Log-Log Plot Continued….

  13. Low frequencies in earth-quake (1 hr record) 69 s 51.3 s 40.0 s 32.3 s 29.1 s 26.1 s 22.4 s 19.6 s 17.7 s

  14. Onset of Earth QuakeStacking of all 5 PET meters

  15. Onset of Earth QuakeStacking of all 5 PET meters(a closer look at beginning) Continued…

  16. FFT (full)

  17. FFT (low frequencies) Continued…

  18. Plot of Frequencies in FFT *The frequencies appear to be harmonics

  19. Amplitude of earth-quake peaks (plotted versus period) (4 hours of data after start of shock) Amplitude appears to follow power law

  20. Amplitude of peaks (4 hours of data after start of shock) plotted against frequency

  21. Conclusions • All five PET meters saw essentially the same earth-quake signal of 18mGal p-p • The main differences in the signal were due to fact that time synchronization was not set (± 0.5s discrepancies between meters). • The peaks appeared to be harmonics that roughly followed a power law in amplitude
