U.S. Geological Survey Global Seismographic Network - Five-Year Plan 2006-2010 U.S. Geological Survey Global Seismographic Network - Five-Year Plan 2006-2010
The Global Seismographic Network provides data for earthquake alerting, tsunami warning, nuclear treaty verification, and Earth science research. The system consists of nearly 150 permanent digital stations, distributed across the globe, connected by a modern telecommunications network. It serves as a multi-use scientific facility and societal resource for monitoring, research, and...

Ongoing research experiments at the former Soviet nuclear test site in eastern Kazakhstan Ongoing research experiments at the former Soviet nuclear test site in eastern Kazakhstan
Degelen mountain, located in EasternKazakhstan near the city of Semipalatinsk, was once the Soviets most active underground nuclear test site. Two hundred fifteen nuclear tests were conducted in 181 tunnels driven horizontally into its many ridges--almost twice the number of tests as at any other Soviet underground nuclear test site. It was also the site of the first Soviet underground...

Composite regional catalogs of earthquakes in the former Soviet Union Composite regional catalogs of earthquakes in the former Soviet Union
Seismological study of the territory of the former Soviet Union developed in the 20th century with the approach of maintaining constant observations with standard instrumentation and methods of data processing, determining standardized parameters describing the seismic sources, and producing regular summary publications. For most of the century, event data were published only in Russian...

Reports and maps of the Military Geology Unit, 1942-1975 Reports and maps of the Military Geology Unit, 1942-1975
Included here are reports and maps which were prepared in the Military Geology Unit of the U. S. Geological Survey from 1942 through 1975. In addition to the references prepared primarily for military use and listed here, more than 200 reports of more general geologic interest were prepared for publication as Survey bulletins and professional papers and in outside journals. These reports...
