Abstract
The methods to distinguish an underground explosion from an earthquake are mainly based on exploiting the differences in the source functions of the two processes and locating the depth of source. Various characteristics of seismic signals generated by these sources are usually represented by different parameters or identifiers. However, it is not possible for a single identifier to distinguish an explosion from an earthquake with equal effectiveness in all situations. Usually a combination of several identifiers is found to provide effective means for the identification of seismic sources. In order to use the multiple parameters in an optimum way, an interactive system (IS) for detection and identification of global events has been developed using short period data of Gauribidanur array. This report describes the salient features of the IS and demonstrates its effectiveness in identifying an event using weighted combination of the parameters together with the depth of source. It is intended to augment the system with long period data in the next phase of the development. (author). 37 refs., 14 figs., 2 tabs.
