"A Twelve-Channel Seismograph for Field Work in Under- graduate Geophysics "

该项目将加强大学生物理学教学， 并将为本科生创造研究机会， 购置便携式勘探地震仪。 仪器 购买的是EG G几何模型ES-1225十二通道 勘探地震仪 这个装置有现代化的微处理器 技术和数字信号增强能力，将取代 15岁的单道地震仪 新仪器将用于四个本科物理学 地震数据采集基本原理课程 勘探;使用计算机软件进行回放、分析和 地震数据的解释;以及数字记录的概念， 滤波和信号增强。 该单位还将 供本科生用于物理学的高级论文研究， 水文地质和工程地质。 这项为期两年的12，495美元补助金将由同等数额的 非联邦基金。

This project will strengthen undergraduate instruction in geophysics, and will create research opportunities for undergraduates through the acquisition of a portable exploration seismograph. The instrument to be purchased is an EG&G Geometrics Model ES-1225 twelve channel exploration seismograph. This unit, which has modern microprocessor technology and digital signal enhancement capability, will replace a 15-year-old single channel seismograph. The new instrument will be used in four undergraduate geophysics courses to teach basic principles of data acquisition in seismic exploration; use of computer software for playback, analysis and interpretation of seismic data; and concepts of digital recording, filtering, and signal enhancement. The unit also will be used by undergraduates for senior thesis research in geophysics, hydrogeology, and engineering geology. This two-year grant of $12,495 will be matched by an equal amount of non-federal funds.
