There are two HERP seismicity catalogs in this directory: HERP_1932_1983_Detailed_Catalog: Contains a detailed catalog of HERP seismicity which was derived via analyzing the transcribed reading/analysis sheet files using the he_relp location program. HERP_1932_1983_Condensed_Catalog: Contains a condensed catalog of HERP seismicity with one line per event which was derived from the HERP_1932_1983_Detailed_Catalog. Details of the HERP_1932_1983_Detailed_Catalog format: Each event is described in either five lines if data are available for determination of ML or four lines otherwise. The third line (whose first entry is "ML(bdsn)" is not present if data are not available for the calculation of ML. The 1st line contains, for example: yr.doy hr:mn Descriptive location 32.051 06:50 ML = 3.1 8 km S of Morgan Hill, CA where: yr.doy = origin time year and day of year hr:mn = origin time hour and minute ML = local magnitude rounded to the nearest tenth Descriptive location = distance in km and direction from nearest landmark The 2nd line contains: OT (UTC) se_hms lat se_lat lon se_lon dep se_dep 06:50:01.887 2.445 37.0551 10.50 -121.6517 8.93 3.00 (R) where: The origin time (OT) is given in (UTC) se_hms = standard error of OT in seconds lat = latitude (+ = North) se_lat = standard error of lat in km lon = longitude (+ = East) se_lat = standard error of lon in km dep = hypocentral depth in km se_dep = standard error of dep in km ( "(R)" == depth was restrained) The 3rd line contains: ML se_ML # ML se_ML # ML(bdsn) = 2.83 0.135 5 ML(brk) = 2.83 0.135 5 Model = d where: The first "ML se_ML #) tuple is the ML, its standard error and number of observations using the BDSN station adjustments. The second "ML se_ML #) tuple is the ML, its standard error and number of observations using the original BRK station adjustments derived for stations that housed Wood-Anderson seismographs. The 4th line contains: se = 1.680 nstn = 3 qual = 3 del_ns = 31.83 where: se = standard error of a single observation in seconds nstn = number of observing stations qual = solution quality factor which is based on size of the solution uncertainty (in OT, lat, lon, and depth (when not constrained)) ellipsoid semi-major axis (sma): 0 = sma <= 2. 1 = sma <= 5. 2 = sma <= 10. 3 = sma <= 20. 4 = sma > 20. see st_sln.f subroutine in ALGORITHMS/HE_RELP directory for details del_ns = distance to nearest observing station in km The 5th line contains: hor_se = 18.475 az_gap = 340 npha = 5 evt_flag = 0 log_sma = 1.2 where: hor_se = horizontal error in km az_gap = azimuthal gap in degrees npha = number of phases used in solution evt_flag = flags events which may not be local or regional 0 = local or regional earthquake 1 = noise glitch 2 = non-clustered stations 4 = teleseism 6 => 2 + 4 above see st_pdf.f subroutine in ALGORITHMS/HE_RELP directory for details log_sma = logarithm of semimajor axis of hypocenter error ellipsoid in km Details of the HERP_1932_1983_Condensed_Catalog format: Each event has a one line entry in the catalog and the columns are: OT_yr.doy = OT year and day of year OT_hms = OT hr:mn:second OT_se_hms = OT standard error (sec) lat = Latitude (deg; + = North) se_lat = lat standard error (km) lon = Longitude (deg; + = East) se_lon = lon standard error (km) dep = hypocentral depth (km) se_dep = dep standard error (km) ml = ML (BDSN) se_ml = ML standard error nmlo = number of amplitude observations used in ML calculation model = velocity model se = standard error of a single observation (sec) ns = number of observing stations in solution qual = solution quality (see above description) np = number of observed phases used in solution lsma = logarithm of solution error ellipsoid semi-major axis
