Description for Monitoring the Comprehensive Nuclear-test-ban Treaty
Paperback. The number of seismic events that occur naturally on this planet can obscure illegal nuclear testing. These papers address regional data recorded using a variety of sensing equipment to discern real nuclear explosions from background natural events. Editor(s): Walter, W.R.; Hartse, H.E. Series: Pageoph Topical Volumes. Num Pages: 290 pages, 54 black & white illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PHVG; RBC. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 254 x 178 x 15. Weight in Grams: 560.
In September 1996, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT), prohibiting nuclear explosions worldwide, in all environments. The treaty calls for a global verification system, including a network of 321 monitoring stations distributed around the globe, a data communications network, an international data center, and onsite inspections, to verify compliance. The problem of identifying small-magnitude banned nuclear tests and discriminating between such tests and the background of earthquakes and mining-related seismic events, is a challenging research problem. Because they emphasize CTBT verification research, the 12 papers in this special volume primarily addresses regional data recorded ... Read more
