AusPASS - Seismic deployments in Northwest Australia from 2005 to 2008 (CAPRAL)

AusPass is a service dedicated to the acquisition, management, and distribution of passive seismological data in Australia. Extensive fieldwork projects are conducted across the country, organized in seismic arrays (i.e. groups of seismic stations).The CAPRAL array was designed to improve local earthquake location and hence understanding of neotectonics in northwestern Australia. These stations provide a useful framework to improve coverage of the Pilbara craton and the Capricorn orogen. The array consists of 27 site with Guralp CMG-3ESP seismometers and Earthdata digitisers. Sample rates are 25 samples/sec.

AusPass是一项致力于澳大利亚被动地震数据（passive seismological data）采集、管理与分发的专业服务。项目团队在澳大利亚全境开展了大规模野外工作项目，并将地震观测设备按地震台阵（seismic arrays，即地震台站集群）的形式进行部署与组织。CAPRAL台阵的设计目标是提升本地地震定位精度，从而加深对澳大利亚西北部新构造学（neotectonics）的科学认知。该台阵的观测站点为完善皮巴拉克拉通（Pilbara craton）与摩羯座造山带（Capricorn orogen）的地震观测覆盖范围提供了关键支撑框架。本台阵共计包含27个观测站点，搭载Guralp CMG-3ESP型地震仪与Earthdata数据数字化仪（digitisers），采样率为25次/秒。
