Magnitude 5.5 #earthquake in #Gabon 30 minutes ago (2022-12-04Z09:53).
Signal on station G.EDA (courtesy of the #GEOSCOPE global #seismic network and made available via #IRIS) - displayed using @obspy software. There were two very similar events here in March 2021 but today's is larger. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us6000j6u0/executive
@stevenjgibbons @obspy The seismogram from station GT.DBIC at Dimbokro, Ivory Coast shows very sharp and clear P and S energy arrivals and a long, dispersed, surface wave train - due to relatively "simple" oceanic geology between the earthquake and station.

@ALomax @stevenjgibbons @obspy is there a mechanism, and what does this look like at other stations elsewhere?

then click on "BRB". An interactive, 1 hour plot of the seismogram showing vertical ground motion should come up.
