Description

The structure of short period seismic waves field from underground nuclear explosions, conducted at the Lop Nor, Pokharan and Chagai test sites and earthquakes with epicenters near these test sites was studied for NNC RK stations. Threshold values and coefficients of discrimination quality were defined for each parameter. (author)
