| Abstract: | The GEOSCOPE network (G) is a global seismological network created in 1982 to respond to the challenge of instrumenting isolated sites all around the world. The GEOSCOPE network is primarily dedicated to research and its data are used for studies of Earth structure and dynamics, seismic sources, time dependent seismology and environmental seismology. It currently runs 33 broad band seismic stations, all of which provide real-time data. This allows for rapid source determination, and GEOSCOPE data are therefore used by earthquake and tsunami alert centers. Most of the stations are equipped with very broad band STS1 seismometers and recent installations now include new generation very broadband sensors (STS6, T360). Stations are either installed in vaults with special equipments aimed at reducing long period noise related to atmospheric pressure variation, or at depth to reduce surface perturbations. Data of this network are freely and fully disseminated (both in real time and after validation) with standardized format and distribution procedures by the IPGP, RESIF and IRIS data centers. IPGP data center also provides additional products built with GEOSCOPE data, such as near real-time estimation of global seismicity source parameters (for earthquakes above magnitude 5.5-6). |
