It represents the first large-scale comparison of such data, providing ground-truth information for the teleseismic locations and insight into the process of T-wave generation. An assessment of location accuracy and catalog completeness in these remote ocean settings is critical for explosion monitoring efforts associated with the Comprehensive Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT), as well as seismotectonic studies at mid-ocean ridges (MOR's). During the last decade, the value of hydroacoustic studies in monitoring... You do not have access to this content, please speak to your institutional administrator if you feel you should have access.
