Processed seismic motion records from Desert Hot Springs, California earthquake of April 22, 1992, recorded at seismic stations in southern Nevada
As part of the contract with the US Department of Energy, Nevada Field Office (DOE/NV), URS/John A. Blume & Associates, Engineers (URS/Blume) maintains a network of seismographs in southern Nevada to monitor the ground motion generated by the underground nuclear explosions (UNEs) at the Nevada Test Site (NTS). The seismographs are located in the communities surrounding the NTS and the Las Vegas valley. When these seismographs are not used for monitoring the UNE generated nations, a limited number of seismographs are maintained for monitoring motion generated by other than UNEs (e.g. motion generated by earthquakes, wind, blast). During the subject earthquake of April 22nd 1992, a total of 19 of these systems recorded the earthquake motions. This report contains the recorded data.
