Earthquakes: Cross-correlation detector in #ObsPy is used to match a template from one seismic event to a longer trace from a seismometer, returning events which correlate above a user-defined threshold. Applying this to
#RaspiShake RD884, in Constantine, Cornwall, UK at a threshold of 0.80, I have identified 33 separate events in a swarm of multiplets (or repeaters) from the last week, identical earthquakes produced repeatedly from the same source. 12 of the events from this swarm have also been reported by #BGSSeismology. The largest event has a magnitude of 1.7, so they are all very small, although the M1.7 event was felt at the surface. The #ObsPy tutorial I followed is here: https://docs.obspy.org/master/tutorial/code_snippets/xcorr_detector.html and
#BGSSeismology report the swarm here: https://earthquakes.bgs.ac.uk/earthquakes/recent_uk_events.html.
A M5.8 #Earthquake 14 km NW of Ciranjang-hilir, Indonesia at 2022-12-08 00:50:58UTC recorded at 109.3° away in SW England and Brittany on #Raspishake and #BGSseismology networks, in the core shadow zone. See: https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us6000j7r0/executive. Uses #obspy, #matplotlib & #folium libraries.
Surface waves from a M6.9 #Earthquake near Bengkulu, Indonesia at 18/11/2022 13:37:09UTC, received in the UK ~11500 km away approximately an hour after the earthquake on #BGSSeismology and #Raspishake devices. The frequency of these waves is shown on a plot from the BGS Elmsett seismometer. @PoLaRobs
