Title: IRIS-SEIS users manual and installation guide

The IRIS-SEIS seismological processing package is a software extension to Sierra Geophysics' SIERRASEIS seismic data processing package. By using IRIS-SEIS, one can apply algorithms which are not provided within the original SIERRASEIS package. In addition, IRIS-SEIS provides an environment so that users may add locally developed algorithms into the IRIS-SEIS/SIERRASEIS package. Some knowledge of FORTRAN and UNIX is required to add routines into IRIS-SEIS. IRIS-SEIS will not run as a stand-along software package but is written to be integrated with SIERRASEIS. The user must have a valid SIERRASEIS license in order to properly install and run IRIS-SEIS. IRIS-SEIS as presented here is supported on SUN/UNIX-based systems; references to operating system commands or to installation command files are based on the UNIX operating system. In addition to providing access to all original processing routines, IRIS-SEIS provides several capabilities which are not available to in SIERRASEIS. Most important, IRIS-SEIS separates SIERRASEIS routines from IRIS routines so that the IRIS- added routines do not corrupt the SIERRASEIS routines or infrastructure. Functionality available within IRIS-SEIS are user-definable headers, import of external data, utility processors to fix trace headers, and additional processing algorithms. This reference manual provides information which is needed to optimally use IRIS-SEIS. The first of three sections discusses the SIERRASEIS environment which provides a reference into which IRIS-SEIS and LOCAL-SEIS'' resides. The second section provides information on IRIS-SEIS (e.g., capabilities, installation procedures, how to run a job, etc.). The third section provides similar information on LOCAL-SEIS. Within the appendices, user documentation on each IRIS-SEIS processor is given. An appendix describes a set of C-language I/O utility routines for FORTRAN code; several IRIS-SEIS processors use this library.
