The construction of a broadband seismic observation array in Yanqing,Beijing
Relying on the project of improving the seismic monitoring ability in Yanqing,Beijing,the Beijing Earthquake Agency built a broadband seismic observation array in Yanqing to form the Yanqing broadband seismic monitoring network.The network consists of 39 seismic observation stations with aninterstation distance of about 5 km.After the completion of the network,the seismic monitoring capability in this area has been improved from ML 1.2 to ML 0.1,which can provide data support for earthquake research and judgment and rapid response and disposal of emergencies in the capital circle.This dense array took four years from survey and selection to completion.The problems and experiences in the construction and implementation process are summarized,which can provide a reference for the construction of stations and other dense arrays in Beijing in the later period.
