XXIX ESC General Assembly, Sept. 12-17, 2004 - GFZ

• „We wish to propose in the first line the foundation of an international net
of earthquake stations with the task to observe, in a systematic way, the
propagation of motions on the Earth´s surface and through the Earth body
that emanate from large earthquake centers.“
• „It is desirable and for the success of this undertaking important that all
stations select the same kind of instruments and that these are brought up
to the same degree of sensitivity.“
• „All signatories consider a Central Bureau for
the collection and publicationof the earthquake
reports from all over the world a necessary
supplement to the proposed monitoring system.“
This resolution is submitted to the conference by
