Quake Watch 2014

I don't think so
here's one,direct link to image h t t p://images.geonet.org.nz/earthquake/drums/latest/waz-seismic-drum.png
or the page is h t t p://www.geonet.org.nz/quakes/drums/wanganui

The reason I don't know for sure is I don't have the Geonet Drums loaded on DataPro

a reply to: muzzy

I will take a look at the code and see if there is a problem.

So you are not seeing the data below in the Webicorder viewer?





Yup they have changed the format. I will recode it and issue a new version.

a reply to: PuterMan

No, all I can get right now are the IRIS and LISS helicorders
this is what I get for NZ

sorry about the bad screenshot

a reply to: muzzy

Yes because they have completely changed the web links from the original. I now have a working version and will created the upgrade files tomorrow as it is too late now (03:06). The list now has all the new drums as well.

LDEO fallen asleep at the wheel?
nothing since

I was looking for their take on the Fiji 6.7-7.1 yesterday

Strange we were talking about Zambia a few days ago and all of a suddenly:...........

Yeah been wondering what’s up with these African quakes the past couple of days… Very unusual. Hopefully they didn't freak the animals out too much. I can imagine a family of gorillas sitting there looking at each other thinking what on earth was that

New release of QVSData Standard. Download links and revision notes here or look in my signature.

Fixes the NZ Drums.

a reply to: PuterMan

DO NOT DOWNLOAD THAT VERSION - THERE IS AN ERROR IN THE DATA COLLECTION.

I am working on it.

If you have already installed it revert to 3.1.65.1 which you can download from the page in my signature.

a reply to: PuterMan

A new version of QVSData was just released replacing the errored version 3.2.66.1 issued yesterday.

Details of the release and the download links for the standard version can be found here

Pro users will receive an email notification.

The introduction of the SQL Server Compact 4.0 modules caused an error on code that had successfully run with the two previous versions. Indeed the change in version 4.0 seems to be a backward step as it diables a feature that is present in the full SQL Server.

LDEO still not showing a record of that Fiji M7
I wonder why?
Too deep to show S waves? which is what they use (Ms)
Can't say I have noticed that before, will have to look back, perhaps do a search for deep quakes in the last year or two and then compare with what LDEO archive I have built and see if they showed any that match.
Likely looking at Fiji or Andes in SA.

a reply reply to: muzzy (talking to myself again it seems)
If its Ms you want, and I do (for my M7+ project), and besides Ms is more important than anything else IMO, due to the fact that is what we feel as the shaking and it is what does the damage to buildings and infrastructure,
GCMT have that Fiji quake at 7.1Ms link

The Aussies didn't get even get the Ms to M7 or in fact with any magnitude type (finalised) (not towing the USGS line!?)
Mwp: 6.9 (Preferred)
Mb: 6.48
Ms: 6.33

GSRAS didn't bother to do the conversion, just posting it as 6.6mb link and also called it West of Tonga, like Geonet did.
Neither did CEDC,
2014-11-02 02:57:20.1 -19.60 -177.80 410 mb6.7 天然地震 斐济群岛地区 link good for about 3 days

So we likely will see USelessGS take it down below M7 on the 7 or 30 day reviewed data, maybe

Interesting to see what people read about NZ earthquakes.
I just noticed I had categorised all my NZ Earthquakes for October under the September category, due to using the copy/template feature on Wordpress and not changing the Month.
484 people read my blog in the last 30 days, but no one noticed!, or didn't bother to give me a heads up in the Comments.
Other 30 day stats are interesting;
Biggest read was 1. SNZO – IRIS (50 views) which has the IRIS graphs for SNZO and which I stopped posting to 11 months ago on Dec 6th 2013 !
2. 13.10.2014 (day286) (13 views) the day of the Puysegur M6.2, which is understandable
3. SNZO Archives (9 views) which has the old LISS graphs for SNZO and I stopped posting to over a year ago on July 20th 2013 !
10. Canterbury Series, NZ 2010 to 2012 (6 views)
maybe its time to bring back LISS, it was always interesting to see wiggles on the graphs that the likes of USGS and EMSC didn't catch
I started saving them again on 13/10, the day of the Puysegur M6.2
I don't suppose anyone else saves these? I asked Puterman, but he hadn't.

Just noticed on todays graphs something on the 1700 line QSPA and SNZO, Zambia and Kenya, but not RAO or MBWA( W Australia), so likely something went off down south of NZ, or at least close to Antarctica, nothing showing on any Networks

Watching USGS...
Oregon seems to be throwing a small hissy fit !
As usual will be keeping a close eye out!

looks like it was this one;
F-E Region: Southern Mid Atlantic Ridge
Time: 2014-11-04 16:58:24.3 UTC
Magnitude: 4.8
Epicenter: 8.98°W 49.05°S
Depth: 10 km

Confirmed by Wilber3, part of IRIS ds.iris.edu...
49.0343° S 9.064° W 2014-11-04 16:58:24 UTC 15.0 km MB4.9 Southern Mid-Atlantic Ridge

Yes, it was showing on the following stations, with relevant arrival times.
SNZO: South Karori, New Zealand,
P +12m 56s, 17:11:20, S +23m 47s, 17:22:11
QSPA: South Pole Remote Earth Science Observatory (Quiet Zone)
P +7m 42s, 17:06:06, S +13m 55s, 17:12:19
VNDA: Wright Valley (Bull Pass) Antarctica, in the Mts behind McMurdo Sound
P +9m 18s, 17:07:42, S +16m 50s, 17:15:14
LBTB: Lobatse, Botswana, Africa
P +7m 1s, 17:05:25, S +12m 40s, 17:11:04
Amazing it showed on SNZO, for a M4.9, its so far away, 9962 km

The graphs for that period are gone now, thats why its called Live ISS
and why someone should save them.
I'll get onto it, am depending on WIlber3 for the arrival time details, if they don't post the event then there is no AT detail.
I'll make some new pages on GSAIM which has been sitting idle for 3 months and new SNZO and RAO pages on NZEQ



On VNDA and LBTB there were a couple of local quakes as well, different times, no sign of where/howbigtheywere on any networks.

M5 4.9mb just East of Fiji
seen it on the graphs, strong showing on SNZO and RAO
That Coleville Ridge seems to transfer the S waves straight down the length to Cook Strait

Interesting swarm going on in Oregon.

Dang, sorry trying to post pict but having problems

Strong Earthquake Gulf Of California 08-Oct-14 (E142810240) - Downgraded from 6.2 to 6.0

Actually one of the first downgrades/upgrades for some time. They used to be very frequent but now they are either more accurate or less bothered! (Or do it after 30 days which misses my radar)

a reply to: crappiekat

Yes it is... been observing the swarm for a few days now.

I don't think we have seen the worst of it yet.

a reply to: crappiekat
a reply to: MamaJ
Neither of you have given links
If this is the swarm, then crappiekat needs to go back to skool for geography lessons
its in Nevada
The Sheldon National Antelope Refuge, Nevada
222 quakes since 23/10/2014
7 x M4's in it

Looking at USelessGS I see that you were sucked in by the terrible location system they use, given as ... ESE/SE of Lakeview, Oregon
even though they were in Nevada.
This is why the location system is useless and confusing
