JAS1 - Jamestown, CA, USA
- Location:
-
Site is located in Jamestown, California. The equipment
from JAS was relocated to JAS1 07/03/1984, and
then from JAS1 to CMB on 11/06/1986, at which
time JAS1 was closed.
JAS1 (and JAS) were part of the USGS
Digital World Wide Standard Seismograph Network (DWWSSN),
the digital descendant of the
WWSSN.
- Geology:
-
Alluvium
- Vault/Borehole conditions:
-
Seismometers were temporarily located in a garage on a
concrete floor while looking for a more permanent location. This site was noisy.
- Instrumentation:
-
| Sensor | Datalogger | Start Date | End Date | SEED Channels | Location |
| Teledyde Geotech T210 LP V Seismometer | DWSSN | 1984/07/26 | 1986/10/24 | MH?,LH? | |
| Teledyne Geotech S13 SP V Seismometer | DWSSN | 1984/07/26 | 1986/10/24 | BH? | |
| Teledyne Geotech T200 LP H Seismometer | DWSSN | 1984/07/26 | 1986/10/24 | MH?,LH? | |
- Network:
-
BK (Berkeley Digital Seismic Network)
- Operation Notes: (may not be current)
- This section summarizes major changes in equipment or in instrumentation at JAS1.
- 11/06/1986: Station closed; instruments relocated to CMB.
- 07/03/1984: Benioff and Teledyne Geotech instruments relocated to JAS1 from
JAS.
- Noise Characteristics:
-
The figures below are cumulative plots of power spectral density (psd)
determined from the broadband channels. In each figure, the vertical
component psd is plotted with blue diamonds, the north component
psd with red squares, and the east component psd with green circles.
The results are presented in the 5 different frequency bands, and
the USGS/Albuquerque low noise model is plotted as a dashed line in each.
The PSD units are in dB (decibel) relative to 1 (m/s**2)**2/Hz. The current
annual plot is updated weekly.

- Data Availability:
- BDSN waveforms and associated metadata are available at the
Northern California Earthquake Data Center (NCEDC).
Several tools provide access to SEED format data at the
NCEDC, both in terms of querying the archives and
allowing data requests.
- Querying the archives
- Requesting data
Help on using these
tools is available.
