Continuous Very Broad Band seismographic data from station Terra Nova Bay (TNV).
Entry ID:
SeismographicData_TNVstation
Summary
Abstract:
Permanent seismographic station established at Terra Nova Bay, the Italian
Station in Antarctica located in Victoria Land, in order to record very broad band and high dynamics signals in continuous way. The primary seismometers are three-component Streckeisen STS-1/VBB sensors, data loggers are Quanterra Q4120 and Q680, which provide data with a resolution of 24 bits, corresponding to 144 dB dynamics. Accurate timing is provided by a GPS receiver. Geographic Coverage

Quality
The seismometer is a transducer of ground motion featuring a well-known
response function. Signal are acquired and converted to 24 bit digital counts. Algorithms of data decimation provide a number of data streams at several sampling rates.
