Forensic seismology is the forensic use of the techniques of seismology to detect and study distant phenomena, particularly explosions, including those of nuclear weapons.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Some Practical Applications of Forensic Seismology )〕 Because of the efficiency with which seismic waves propagate through the Earth and the technical difficulties of decoupling explosions to diminish their seismic radiation, forensic seismology is a critical technique in the enforcement of bans on underground nuclear testing. In addition to nuclear explosions, the signatures of many other kinds of explosions can also be detected and analyzed by forensic seismology,〔 and even other phenomena such as ocean waves (the global microseism), the movement of icebergs across the sea floor or in collision with other icebergs, or explosions within submarines. Organizations with expertise in forensic seismology include AWE Blacknest, Los Alamos National Laboratory, Sandia National Laboratory, and Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. == See also == * Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Forensic seismology」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
