From brune Thu Jan 22 13:10:14 1998 Return-Path: Received: from brune.seismo.unr.edu by quake.seismo.unr.edu (8.6.13/1.34) id NAA16791; Thu, 22 Jan 1998 13:10:14 -0800 Date: Thu, 22 Jan 1998 12:53:41 -0800 (PST) From: James Brune Reply-To: James Brune To: Seismo Faculty , Seismo Grad Students Subject: Interpretation of Seismograms meetings and class Message-ID: X-Sender: brune@quake.seismo.unr.edu MIME-Version: 1.0 X-Lines: 25 Status: RO Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Length: 1207 After discussions with John Anderson and those who attended the organizational meeting Jan. 21 I propose the following proceedures and format for the class. 1. All seismology students will be required to audit the class and participate in weekly record reading sessions. 2. This year we will emphasize retrieving seismograms from internet sources. The first few sessions will emphasize proceedures for doing this, and will feature presentations by Glenn Biasi, Gene Ichinose, Arturo, and others? who have some experience doing this. 3. Starting about mid-February students will be assigned responsibility to collect data for the earthquakes of the week, and at least one other interesting earthquake if there are none ocurring during the week, and preparing to lead discussion and analysis of the seismograms on the subsequent Wednesday. At that time Jim Brune and others will give a half hour lecture on interpretation of seismograms at the beginning of the class. 4. Copies of notes will be made for some of the lectures by Jim Brune. The notes have a list of references on interpretation of seismograms. These references will be on file in the Seismology office for students to check out.
