Non-technical Summary

The Pacific Northwest Seismograph Network ( PNSN) operates seismograph stations in Washington and Oregon, and collects and analyzes earthquake data. Between Oct. 1, 2000 and Sept. 30, 2001 the PNSN analyzed 6,263 events. Of these, 5,133 were earthquakes or blasts within the network (2,099 of which were too small to locate). Within the network area, 2,227 tectonic earthquakes were located west of 120.5 degrees west longitude (including 800 in the general vicinity of Mount St. Helens, which has not had a magmatic eruption since 1986), and 275 east of 120.5 degrees west longitude. The remaining events were blasts within the network (587), regional earthquakes (394), teleseisms (736), low-frequency events (70; probably icequakes, mostly near the summit of Mt. Rainier), and surficial events (5; rockfalls near the summits of Mt. St. Helens and Mt Rainier).

Between Oct. 1, 2000 and Sept. 30, 2001, 23 earthquakes were reported felt in Washington west of the Cascades, ranging in magnitude from 1.1 to 6.8. Thirty-seven earthquakes (magnitudes 0.6 to 3.9) were reported felt east of the Cascades, and just one earthquake (magnitude 1.9) was reported felt in Oregon.

The largest event during the reporting period was the damaging magnitude 6.8 Nisqually earthquake of Feb. 28, 2001.

Network Operations

The Pacific Northwest Seismograph Network (PNSN) operates 159 short-period, broad-band, or strong-motion seismic stations west of 120 degrees west longitude under this agreement, and 38 additional stations under other support. Some stations include up to 7 components. PNSN stations in southern and central Oregon are maintained by the University of Oregon under Cooperative Agreement 01HQAG0012. The PNSN exchanges real-time data with adjacent networks to improve our ability to locate earthquakes on the edge of our network. The PNSN records and assists with the maintenance of several short-period stations operated by the USGS, and receives real-time data from four US National Network (USNSN) stations in Washington and Oregon.

A PNSN seismologist is always available on-call, and our standard procedure is to respond to pager messages from our automatic earthquake detection process (initiated for any earthquake within our network of magnitude 2.9 or larger), or calls from Washington or Oregon emergency management agencies or the UW police. PRELIMINARY information for earthquakes of M>=2.9 is sent out automatically by the event detection process. Emergency managers and other high-priority information users receive very rapid notification through the RACE pager-PC system, faxes and e-mail. Simultaneously, an automatic Web-site is created for the event (see /SEIS/EQ_Special/lasteq.html).

FINAL details are provided as soon as the duty seismologist analyzes the earthquake information. Final locations and magnitudes for earthquakes of M>=2.9 are also disseminated through the NOAA emergency weather notification system.

For all earthquakes, updates of information are posted to Web-pages each time the analyst finalizes a group of locations and magnitudes. In addition to ordinary phone lines, the PNSN has a radio link to the King County and City of Seattle Emergency Operations Centers and an independent direct phone link to the Washington State Dept. of Emergency Services.

The PNSN provides "Recent Earthquakes" web pages using the national "Quake Data Delivery System", "ShakeMap" pages (showing instrumental intensity, PGA, and PGV), and links to the USGS CIIM (Community Internet Intensity Maps) site, which collects, compiles, and interprets web-based felt reports from the public.

  • The PNSN Strong Motion Program: Since 1996, the PNSN has installed digital strong-motion instruments, mostly in the Puget Sound urban area. In summer 2001, 20 new instruments were installed, bringing the total number of PNSN ANSS strong-motion instruments to 42. Continuous data from these stations are sent to the PNSN via Internet or lease-line modem, but the instruments also have a trigger set to record stronger events on-site. If continuous data transmission fails, the data will still be available via dial-up retrieval or site visit. Three additional dial-up stations are operated by the USGS in the Portland area. Highlights this year include the upgrade of two stations to meet CREST (Consolidated Reporting of EarthquakeS and Tsunamis) standards, and the installation of three other new CREST stations.

  • Data Availability:All triggered network trace-data is saved in raw unedited format, and continuous telemetry data streams are saved from several selected broadband data and short-period stations. Processed data for each event are backed up on network archive tapes. Edited event trace-data are archived on large disks and kept on 2.1 GByte exabyte tape. We archive the edited trace-data at the University on high-speed, high-capacity (20 GByte) digital linear tape (DLT) cartridges and at the IRIS Data Management Center (DMC) in SEED format, where they can be retrieved by any investigator via the standard IRIS data request mechanisms.

  • Education and Outreach: Staff from the PNSN provide an educational outreach program to better inform the public, policy makers, and emergency managers about seismicity and natural hazards. In addition to information sheets, lab tours, workshops, and media interviews, we have an audio library with several tapes, including a frequently updated message on current seismic activity. Similar, more comprehensive, information is available via Internet on the World-Wide-Web (WWW): /SEIS/

    The installation of strong-motion instruments has encouraged the formation of research relationships with organizations who are interested in the data collected and the potential for useful data products. These organizations, in turn, provide the PNSN with station sites and/or telemetry. Cooperative efforts will contribute to more robust and diversified network telemetry, additional non-federally funded strong motion seismograph stations, and increased support for critical staff.

  • Special Events:
  • This year was a busy one for us. The M 6.8 Nisqually earthquake on February 28th was followed by intense national media attention, with a high demand for interviews and information. FEMA funding was obtained for:
    The Nisqually Earthquake Clearinghouse
    (hosted by the PNSN) to collect and organize data related to the earthquake. The Clearinghouse operated through the end of September.

  • High demand for public information continued as additional western Washington Benioff zone earthquakes (M 5.0 and M 4.3) occurred in June and July, and a swarm of small earthquakes, in sporadic bursts from June through September, were felt by many in downtown Spokane.

  • PNSN staff met with numerous state and county officials, representatives of utility and private companies, and engineering and emergency management groups regarding rapid earthquake notification and long-term network and strong-motion development plans. The PNSN installed a RACE System at the WSDOT Seattle Operations Center.

  • Many presentations were given; to professional groups such as the Washington State Emergency Managers Association (WSEMA), the Western States Seismic Policy Council (WSSPC), the Contingency Planners And Recovery Managers (CPARM), and the Western Washington Emergency Network conference; and to general audiences at functions including Disaster Saturday, the Burke Museum, the Olympic Peninsula Intertribal Cultural Advisory Committee, the Association of Geo-science Educators, the Seattle Middle Schools Science Fair.

  • The PNSN hosted meetings of the ANSS Technical Integration Committee (see report at http://www.anss.org/ticplan/) and the ANNS Pacific Northwest Region Siting Advisory Committee Meeting (see http://spike.ess.washington.edu/SEIS/ANSS/minutes_april01.html), as well as several meetings of Cascadia Regional Earthquake Workgroup (CREW) subcommittees. PNSN representatives attended a wide variety of other meetings related to earthquake hazards, preparedness, and related information and outreach.

  • The PNSN was especially well represented at the April meeting of the Seismological Society of America, with individual or shared authorship of numerous posters and presentations.

  • Tony Qamar, Washington State Seismologist, has been appointed to the newly reconstituted Seismic Safety Committee of the Washington State Emergency Management Council. Dr. Qamar has been appointed chairman of the Information and Technology Subcommittee.

    Seismicity

    Between Oct. 1, 2000 and Sept. 30, 2001, 23 earthquakes were reported felt in Washington west of the Cascades, ranging in magnitude from 1.1 to 6.8. Thirty-seven earthquakes (magnitudes 0.6 to 3.9) were reported felt east of the Cascades, and just one earthquake (magnitude 1.9) was reported felt in Oregon.

    By far the most interesting event during the reporting period was the magnitude 6.8 Nisqually earthquake of Feb. 28, 2001. Extensive information is available on the

    The Nisqually Earthquake Clearinghouse: http://maximus.ce.washington.edu/~nisqually/index.html
    A great deal has been and will be written regarding this earthquake, which caused at least a billion dollars in damages. Only four small aftershocks were recorded in the two weeks following the mainshock, but a possible late aftershock of magnitude 4.3 occurred nearby about six months later.

    The Nisqually earthquake was the largest of a unusual series of Benioff zone earthqukes that began in July 1999 with a M 5.8 earthquake about 41 km depth beneath Satsop WA. The Nisqually earthquake, in Feb. 2001, was east of the Satsop earthquake and, at 52 km, deeper. A M 5.0 earthquake on June 10, 2001 was near the location and depth of the 1999 Satsop earthquake, and a M 4.3 earthquake on July 22 (UTC) was close to the location and depth of the Nisqually event.

    Other interesting seismicity included a swarm of 61 earthquakes located in the immediate area of downtown Spokane. In addition to the locatable earthquakes, there were many additional events too small to locate due to sparse network coverage of the area. The swarm began in May, and the largest earthquake during the reporting period was a M 3.9 on June 25. No comparable sequence is known in the history of Spokane. For additional details see web page:

    Publications

    Quarterly bulletins from the PNSN provide operational details and descriptions of seismic activity in Washington and Oregon. These are available from 1984 through the third quarter of 2000. PNSN Quarterly Reports from 1994-1998 included moment-tensor focal mechanisms for earthquakes larger than magnitude 3.5 provided by Dr. John Nabelek of Oregon State University (OSU) under support from USGS NEHRP Grant 1434-93-G-2326. Final published catalogs are available from 1970, when the network began operation, though 1989. A 1990-1994 printed catalog is in preparation.
