Fiber-optic vibration sensing—I: Rotation measurement technique and its seismological applications
The seismic wavefield can be decomposed into three-component translational motions and three-component rotational motions. The rotation components contain important wavefield gradient information and are key elements of seismic wavefield reconstruction ...

Meteorological Tsunamis: From Local Hazard to Global Relevance
Abstract Research on meteorological tsunamis or meteotsunamis—long ocean waves in the tsunami frequency band generated by propagating atmospheric disturbances which resonantly enhance ocean waves—has grown significantly in recent decades. This expansion is due to progress in (a) ocean and atmospheric measurements, including advanced instrumentation ...

Evaluation of seismometer health is crucial in accurately detecting earthquake and tsunami events. Currently, seismometer health evaluation is based solely on data quality unrelated to seismometer sensor performance.

Andrija Mohorovicic (1857-1936) is a world-famous Croatian geophysicist and the discoverer of the Earth's crust/mantle boundary known as the Moho-discontinuity. The historical seismometer used by A. Mohorovicic to detect the Moho in 1909 is still maintained in working conditions, and is displayed in the Department of Geophysics of the University of ...

Efficient Sampling of Geophysical Sensor Arrays on the Seafloor
Abstract The great expense of deploying dense arrays of seafloor sensors for continuous collection of geophysical data inhibits the proliferation of measurement systems to the majority of the planet's surface. Advancing geophysical coverage offshore will require technologies different from conventional methods applied onshore where electrical power and

Plant Resonance of Seismometers [PDF]
A seismometer resting on an elastic medium can be regarded as a simple damped oscillator. Methods for measuring the “plant” resonance of seismometers are discussed along with the various parameters affecting the resonance. Laboratory measurements on sand and rubber, and field measurements on different types of soils were made using an electromechanical

Common Sensor Platform Project
Abstract EarthScope Consortium's Common Sensor Platform (CSP) project is a unified, modular, and scalable design approach for geophysical instrumentation deployments. Developed through cross disciplinary collaboration of National Science Foundation's GAGE and SAGE facilities, the platform outlines core station subsystems that have the flexibility to be
