Seismic discrimination in the Kamchatka source region is studied using data from earthquakes, inferences from measurements of teleseismic explosions, and results from the Amchitka tests. On the basis of several parameters taken together, such as M sub s - m sub b, spectral ratio, corner frequency, c...
