Abstract:

The report gives an account of the work conducted by NORSAR in conjunction with development and evaluation of a regional array in Norway during the period July-September 1987. The purpose of the development has been to take advantage of the propagation of high-frequency energy for regional seismic phases in Eurasia. Since Norway is located within the same geologic plate boundary as the Soviet Union, the deployment of such an array provides important new insight with respect to the projected performance of possible future in-country stations in the U.S.S.R. There were no modifications nor changes to the field installations during the reporting period. The performance of the field equipment has been good.
