Description
Summary:The report describes the continued evaluation of the 19-element Alaskan Long Period Array (ALPA), which was conducted by Texas Instruments Incorporated, at the Seismic Data Analysis Center over the period 1 April 1972 to 31 March 1973. The major areas of study in the evaluation were: Noise analysis; regionalization of seismic events; matched filter performance; analysis of S-wave processing for the Kurile Islands - Kamchatka region; seismic event detection thresholds; and behavior of seismic discriminants. Sponsored in part by DARPA. See also report dated 30 Apr 1972, AD0745197.
