Hi All,
I recently obtained the calibration for the LISS helicorder displays
which are to be found at http://www.liss.org/ From there you can
go see US stations on the ANSS or stations world-wide on the GSN.
According to Bob Hutt of the USGS/ASL the displays are set up to have
a velocity response of 333 nanometers per second per line, with a
bandpass from 360 seconds to 20 seconds. That long-period filtering
mainly shows surface waves from relatively distant events, pretty
much eliminating high frequency local quakes and the higher frequency
phases of teleseisms.
We have on occasion been able to use the LISS to confirm the
existence of events which we had seen but which weren't appearing in
the USGS' "Latest Earthquakes" lists.
Regards,
Brett
