Description
Summary:Abstract This contribution describes the development of Norwegian Seismic Array (NORSAR), from its origin 50 yr ago as a project for installing a single seismic array in southern Norway to a seismological research institute operating a network of six arrays and 14 three-component stations located in Norway and Antarctica. In addition, we document the different instrumentations from narrowband, mostly short-period sensors to today’s broadband seismometers that are installed at almost all sites.
