Yes I could take a look at that for you. I could probably strip out some of the code that I wrote to do that. I read all of the header as well as that contains the lat/long etc and DELTA of the points to get the graph up.

I will post one (graph) later as currently I only have files with over 1.25 million entries.

You might find some traces will give you problems. I have one with max 86000+ and min -83000. It is a sharp 'crack' on the audio. This would seriously mess up your averages!

MAN. You guys see this big smack at Redoubt?

That's a heck of a bang.

I started following these quakes obsessively once the (apparently groundless) reports of harmonic tremor started. I had seen that "Supervolcano" movie where the Scottish actor playing the geologist said "the one sure-fire sign of a pending volcanic eruption is harmonic tremor." The earthquake swarm alone was a bit worrisome, but the harmonic tremor report was in a whole other league of seriousness.

So I was sitting there late one night in early January looking at the seismograms, and they looked for all the world to my untrained eyes like harmonic tremor, and people were saying all over the internet (with no authoritative statements to the contrary) that harmonic tremor was present. Plus, there was that missing 3 hour period on the January 1 seismograms that was never explained to my knowledge so that fed into the coverup theories that I would normally dismiss (not much of a conspiracy guy).

I distinctly remember sitting there and thinking "now I know how people felt during the Cuban Missile Crisis." I thought it was that serious. Since there hasn't been any kind of eruption at Yellowstone for 73,000 years and we're in the rough time frame for another super-eruption, I tend to think that there's likely a lot of pent up energy and that the next eruption is likely to be a big one.

So I spent the next few days in total fear/adrenalin mode. And then the quake swarms stopped, but the whole adrenalin rush is kind of addictive so I can't stop following it. It also puts a lot of perspective on things- I might see that my stocks are down on the Dow, but then I look at the seismograms from Yellowstone and if those are quiet then I realize that's what really matters.

iv been following both and have tabs open for both YS and Redoubt....


noooooooooooooooooooooo iam not addicted , its all in your mind....

Ah that's what those number in the beginning are for!
I was simply skipping/deleting them.
Thanks for your time!

Yes, 1 million entry is a bit too much for spreadsheet programs.
OpenOffice Calc only manages up to 65535 rows, at an original sample rate of 100 hz it's only about 10 (uncompressed) minutes worth of seismic data.

You might find some traces will give you problems. I have one with max 86000+ and min -83000. It is a sharp 'crack' on the audio. This would seriously mess up your averages!

Hmm... actually no matter how high maximum values are, I normalize them to +1/-1 (clipping threshold on my ascii to wav converter).

Yeah, definitely sounds like signal, but not a motor noise.
Stranger and stranger, though way cool

Is there a way to automate your sound conversions?

PuterMan is working on that, unfortunately I'm not very good at programming!
I would also like a faster and automated way to convert seismic data into audio waves.

In the meanwhile here's last 2.8 magnitude earthquake "heard" by LKWY station at 50x speed:

Version resampled to 16kHz if you can't play it:

Please remember that Anonymous ATS like myself are addicted to YS EQ's as well! I am certain that there are many of us!! We just remain hidden in the shadows wondering if that conductor is going to show up.

I hope the show happens in daylight so we can watch.. Cam link: www.avo.alaska.edu... - CI
I see YS is acting up again...

Extremely interesting and promising!
But I see that offset isn't properly adjusted on the displayed wave. Is this feature not working yet?

By the way, WY. seismic stations clip data at -2048/+2048!
If you open this audio waveform I created from YMP VASE data you'll see that the beginning of the earthquake wave is clipped. It's not my fault!

Seismic waves from LKWY do not seem to get clipped.

Yes, work in progress! Once done it should only take a few seconds to convert and get the wave file.

HAHA.. Lets just be thankful they are so good at their job! Anchorage is like the largest international air hub in the US so they have to know their stuff and take every precaution for safe flight patterns. The last time Redoubt blew it was pretty terrible for local communities and aircraft including Anchorage so the more warning the better as far as I'm concerned.. Does anyone have info relating to ashfall and livestock?

When I read the trading card post, I immediately thought of Harry Potter looking at Professor Dumbledoer. Anybody with A/V skills? Mix in audio with the script provided (regarding Mr. Jake L and friend), and insert photos in the cards. But, the frog has got to jump out of the train window because it hears an EQ coming. That sounds like a good u-tube project.
