Palo Duro seismographic network operation for April to July 1984: Report No. 1, Revision 1: Topical report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6972519
A seismographic network has been installed in the Texas Panhandle to monitor earthquake activity in the area. This report describes the network and its operation, as well as analysis of data obtained during the period of April 1 to July 31, 1984. The network continued to operate satisfactorily during this period. An earthquake near the Mansfield Station was detected by many stations of the network and was located. The earthquake was not felt. The Mansfield Station continued to detect a number of very small earthquakes occurring near the station, but it was not possible to locate them since no other station detected them. As part of the Stone and Webster Engineering Corporation (SWEC) Quarterly Maintenance Program, all elements of the seismographic network were tested and checked in July 1984. 9 refs., 6 figs., 6 tabs.
