Southern California Seismographic Network; report to the U.S. Geological Survey, August 21, 1990

Abstract

On August 21, 1990, the U. S. Geological Survey held a meeting to review the status of regional seismic networks in the United States. The purpose of the meeting was to provide information to the U.S.G.S. to assist them in setting priorities for future funding of seismic networks in a time of increasingly tight budgets. Each of the networks was therefore asked to prepare a report describing their goals and accomplishments. Three specific questions were raised: how the objectives of the network have been met, the potential for future productivity and opportunities for additional funding.
