Opis

This book deals with various theoretical and practical methods for real-time automatic signal processing in local (and regional) seismic networks and associated software developments, including extraction of small seismic signal from noisy observation by piecewise modeling and self-organizing state space modeling, determination of arrival time of S wave by locally multivariate stationary AT modeling, automatic interpretation of seismic signal by combining cumulativ sum and simulative annealing (CUSUM-SA), AR-filtering for local and teleseismic events, the currently high sensitivity seismic network running in Japan (Hi-net), PC-based computer package for automatic detection and location of earthquakes, real-time automatic seismic data-processing in seismic network running in eastern Sicily (Italy), the SIL (South Iceland Lowland) seismological data acquisition system and routine analysis in Iceland and Sweden.
