A dedicated seismic array for nuclear test ban monitoring at regional distances
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
En vista de un posible acuerdo de prohibici6n de pruebas nucleares en el Campo de Pruebas de Nevada, USA, se consideran algunos aspectos técnicos para instalaciones sísmicas a fin de resolver el problema de monitoreo desde suelo mexicano. Se propone el uso de instalaciones especiales aplicadas aqui para el caso particular de México, como un medio para lograr la capacidad adecuada de monitoreo a distancias regionales con un mínimo de medios. Se propone la región alrededor de Tecate en Baja California Norte como sitio preferente para dichas instalaciones. Se presentan diseños preliminares para Hustrar la metodología propuesta, basada en el uso de operaciones en línea y un interruptor de rechazo azimutal.
