This effort focuses on collecting and analyzing regional seismic data for earthquakes and underground explosions to improve seismic event characterization capabilities with regard to monitoring the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT). Digital data have now been acquired and processed for 26...
