Think we entering in stronger Geo-activity in next 20 days, probably we will see M 7.8+ ..

2011-10-21 17:57:16, -28.998, -176.182, 7.4, 32.9, Kermadec Isls. Region

Close enough I guess

Nice graph muzzy

so it seems one should "look for the gaps",
not "yikes theres a swarm, so there must be a big one coming",
the data shows otherwise. [/quote

As I said in the post with the graphs - more quakes are good yes?

In other words no quakes = stress as you have shown.

GEE watchers: we're out, completely:

Email in, hopefully fix soon.

EDIT: ok, I think it may have been my ISP, GEE is working again after restarting it. My contact already emailed back and it is working for him too. So I guess must have been a more localized problem which is apparently now fixed...Go figure...

Before 5 minute ..

NZ network that should be available in GEE

www.iris.edu...

Nowt to say about barometric pressure then TA?

reply to post by Dalke07


Nice catch Dalke
I have a screen grab from GEE. It made the millimeter/sec amplitude scale. The top station is in Leavenworth, WA.

Yeah? Well would you care to try?

Good luck.

But I hear ya, in that if it is at the IRIS DMC, we should see it in GEE- seeing as that is GEE's main source.

Like I said. Give it a shot. No go, bro.

I think I can see why. They are only near realtime

Earliest Latest
[Data available in realtime systems: 2011/11/01 00:00:00 - 2011/11/18 00:00:00]
2011/11/01 (305) 00:00:00 2011/11/18 (322) 00:00:00

Data only goes to midnight at the start of the 18th

Actually they all say that! Daft system! Ignore that.


Try NZ:BFZ:10:HHZ - working in VASE

reply to post by TrueAmerican

Just like to report that GEE is running fine for me.

Could it be a regional server problem, perhaps?

EDIT: NVM. Just saw your edit to your earlier post about GEE problems.

PM, I have tried ALL NZ stations, and ALL channels, including many channels known only to the real quaketards. NADA, nothing, kaput. But please, be my guest.

reply to post by TrueAmerican


Specially for you TA. I had to take several screen shots and join them together.

Station in VASE from which I can get Data

reply to post by PuterMan


ROFL. Righto. Thanks, I see that. But you're in VASE, and I'm in GEE. Different programs. I want near real time data in GEE, but ain't gonna happen. So looks like it's all up to you and your roses in a vase.

reply to post by TrueAmerican


You do realise you can watch near-realtime data in VASE as well?

It is just not an pretty but it works after a fasshion.

That mag 4.0 in WA has now been revised to a 4.6:

ETA: this revision would seem to bring the real magnitude closer to what's already been posted by Dalke in repect of EMSC's assessment, as well as the seismo traces from GEE that Olivine has put up. A mag 4.0 seemed a bit on the low side to me.

Mike

So here's the URZ webi of those last three quakes in NZ:

www.iris.edu...

Getting bigger. That 6.1 shook for a darn good while...

And Mike, wasn't me who put up the GEE traces of the 4.6, but it usually is.


was Olivine:

reply to post by TrueAmerican

Yep, sorry about the error on the GEE thing. I've corrected it to show "Olivine" and not "TA".

Sorry about that, Olivine! It was a Pavlovian thing, you know: "Hmmm... GEE data... Duhh... That must be a TA post..."

Just throw me a dog biscuit and I'll be happy.

Promiň Miku Ale co je psí sušenku ?

reply to post by JustMike

Your silly! No worries friend--just glad to contribute
ETA: Thanks to knowledgable folks such as yourself, TrueAmerican, Puterman and many others, I'm slowly getting the hang of this.

reply to post by diamondsmith

Diamondsmith asked me: "Excuse me, Mike, but what is a dog biscuit?"

Well, diamondsmith, dog biscuits are very hard biscuits which are flavored like meat, usually. Dogs like them.

In this context, though, the meaning is idiomatic. The old saying was to "throw the dog a bone." It means something like: "Just give me a little of something sometimes and I'll be content. I don't need much."

End of lesson... Back to main topic:

Japan is looking relatively quiet now. Good to see, especially with that triple junction region. Hopefully not the calm before the storm. Bit worrying with that series of quakes off the NZ coast, though. Does this tend to happen fairly regularly? I mean, a gradual increase in magnitudes of the events like that? Anyone have some historical data to hand?

And Olivine: thank you. I am one of the less knowledgeable, to be honest, but I appreciate the sentiments.

Mike
