Quake Watch 2012

You have a tag problem on your post Muzzy.

Upgrade to Magnitude 6.1 New Britain region. Papua New Guinea - was 6.0

2 New Mag 6 on the 11th and the 15th

The Molucca Sea Mag 6 on the 11th was documented by Muzzy here showing the various other providers when USGS was @5.8 Mw

The Near Islands Mag 6 on the 15th was documented by ujustneverknow here as a 5.9Mw.

Now we see the benefit of the history these threads/posts provide.

What happened to Quake Watch 2013?
It's 404'd!!!!
WOQ

WTH, man? I was just coming in to post in that thread! They better return the quake watch '13 thread, it's an annual record of shakin' right in the most convenient spot, plus oodles of educational info over the year. Obviously, the mod who binned it needs to READ threads before junking them

I guess I'll post the quakes here, the ones that caught my eye:

5.0 77km SW of Padangsidempuan, Indonesia 2012-12-26 14:08:03 0.913°N 98.739°E 77.3

And in the US:

Old Faithful did a bit of dancing, eh? Same with New Madrid fault, both were hopping just a bit.

never recognized one arround there

ok, just watched the history of this area... seems normal.

None of the Networks have this one, the biggest quake Globally in 5 days?????, 6 hours ago

2012 12 26 23:02:00.0, -55.75, -144.75, 33.0, [color=rorange]5.6, PACIFIC-ANTARCTIC RIDGE

from the Southern Ocean experts LDEO

confirmed by LISS SNZO
whats wrong with these people,as soon as I opened my browser ( set to SNZO) I thought "close to NZ (because of the short P signal), and mid 5ish"
will probably come in on USGS at something around 5.2 eventually, LDEO, using S wave, tend to be a little high on their estimates

In a spot I haven't seen anything this big in recently:

5.3 169km E of Oistins, Barbados 2012-12-27 00:36:12 12.966°N 57.975°W 14.0

Have you dumped your own LDEO page? I went to have a look at it and it 404ed.

I wanted to compare a few. This one of course may turn up as you say but if it does not then one really needs to know why.

What intrigues me is that it is on the IRIS seismic monitor yet they do not provide data they just collect data from other sources which means SOMEONE has this data, LDEO do surface wave calcs on events they collect from IRIS so the chain

provider---->IRIS---->LDEO

has someone at the head that we do not know about. The quake is not on Australia or New Zealand that I can see, nor is it on ANF (Earthscope) so where has it come from? It seems it is too early for the daily PDE file ETA: try this format instead

Beats me where they got it from!

I'm sure this has been spotted by you guys I just thought it was funny that it wasn't showing on Earth Alerts???

5.9 Mag Central California.

That quake is this one I think:

2012-12-26 11:32:32, 35.970, -120.526, 3.3, 12.0, Central California [Map]

Data sourced from USGS. As to why it is 5.9 on IRIS I have no idea but curious things like that happen more often that you might think.

Here is the seismogram from a station that is just 2.74 miles from the event. B075.PB..EHZ.2012.361

yeah I deleted LDEO, I couldn't keep a continuous record running, too many gaps.
