hello
how sure are you that it could be a 5.8 to 6.0?
are you just speculating? Or was there actually any stations that really had data to suggest that based on mwp??
thanks
Hi there where 48 stations this morning which measured this earthquake 5.6 Magnitude or higher 10 of which measured the magnitude 6.0 or higher.
I will add the station names and the times later today.
THANK YOU... if you could provide this data, that would be a great service because USGS is hiding and manipulating quake data.
If you really have that seen or actually can show that many stations or even just 1 reporting just a 5.8, that would be quite amazing.
Stations are listed you will see the station code name, time and magnitude
WOW! this is excellent work lynsey that you found these!! I'm astounded. Is this a normal occurrence for most quakes recently? Or unique and rare in this case? How often do you see this? Some claim USGS revisions are normal, and while I agree somewhat, there are many cases more and more that I'm seeing these quakes either being deleted/erased, or unusually downgraded too many points and far more than upgraded. Clearly something isn't right with USGS who seems to have control over most stations. I'm curious whether any stations above are USGS connected and whether you'd say the USGS final 5.5 size is under-rated for this quake? it seems thats what you're suggesting, however I'm sure you'd agree some will just say USGS is the final say and is based on real expert analysis. THANK YOU
Hi Sorry for the late reply, USGS doesn't control the stations. USGS stands for United States Geological Survey and they are a scientific agency belonging to the American Government.
They cover 4 major Science disciplines which are
Biology
Geography
Geology
Hydrology
They are a FACT finding organization with no Regulatory Responsibility.
There are thousands of seismic station around the world each seismogram has their own unique numbered code.
for example CADB EHZ NC - Anderson Dam in Northern California
Once an earthquake occurs they are picked up by the seismic stations and this information is collected by USGS among other major networks in Europe and the Pacific. Once the data is in from the Seismogram or several, this data is checked by seismologist, who then determines what data is logged in the final report.
These findings are based on real expert analysis and I would not claim to be an expert
however when the scientists from an area of the earthquake measure an earthquake at 6.2 magnitude they send this data through to Denver USGS which could be for argument sake 3000 miles away from the epicenter and put in their final analysis report 5.6 Magnitude,
Which expert analysis is correct?
The expert that is monitoring the station near the epicenter? or the expert sitting in a a office 3000 miles away who receives data from the scientists monitoring the stations?
