Abstract

                          

India Meteorological Department (IMD) is operating five digital seismograph systems at New Delhi (NDI),.Shillong (SHL), Pune (POO), Kodaikanal (KDK) and Dhamlsala (DHM) since last few years. The details pertaining to instrumental characteristics and software for data retrieval and processing are presented in this paper, Through PC based algorithms. noise pectra are computed and interpreted for these five stations. It is found that the maximum peak occurs at about 6Hz for Pune. Shillong and Kodaikanal while at New Delhi and Dharmsala, it is noted at about 2 Hz. The spectral peak at Shillong as deduced from the SRO system shifts to about I Hz which is in agreement with a similar observation reported at Gauribidanur seismic array.
