  • another term for seismograph
    Example sentencesExamples
    • Using a global network of seismometers to track the speed of earthquake waves, Ni discovered the African superplume has an unusually sharp boundary that extends nearly 900 miles above the core.
    • Sensitive detectors called seismometers record waves emitted by the smallest earthquakes.
    • In the case of the Sumatra-Andaman event, they used the Japanese Hi-Net array, consisting of about 700 high-quality seismometers, as antennae to track the seismic sources.
    • Thirty two ocean bottom seismometers will also be deployed to acquire seismic refraction data.
    • However, because such gigantic earthquakes are rare, these methods had been essentially unused until records of the Sumatra earthquake on modern seismometers became available.
    • Between 1993 and 2002, seismometers detected 120 subglacial quakes along the east and west coasts of Greenland, 6 in Antarctica, and 1 in Alaska.
    • As it was, there was no detectable vibration, making the slide invisible to seismometers.
    • At the local warning center a seismometer (an instrument which measures the direction and force of eruptions) will provide accurate recordings of volcanic activity.
    • As energy waves from the blasts travel through the ground they will be recorded by portable seismometers placed throughout the area.
    • Whatever the phenomenon's cause, he says, scientists should now recognize that icebergs can be a source of noise for seismometers and underwater acoustic sensors.
    • When drilling is completed in August, the entire borehole will be encased in steel and cement so that sensitive instruments - such as seismometers, strainmeters, and fluid and temperature gauges - can be installed underground.
    • As I speak, geologists are in the field and continuing to install what will be a total of 50 seismometers.
    • Mostly they analyze data from seismometers deployed around the globe, as well as data from the two dozen satellites that make up the Global Positioning System.

    • Newer digital broadband seismometers separate any volcano movement into three-dimensional data, Lowenstern said.
    • The third houses a seismometer - a boon for the state's earthquake researchers, as it is the first to be positioned west of the San Andreas Fault.
    • The quake was the first major temblor to take place on land, and away from a tectonic plate boundary, since the invention of the modern seismometer in the 1880s.
