Abstract
The current state of the art in the calibration of seismometers is given by internal calibration procedures which give only incomplete information about a seismometer’s response and are based on transfer functions supplied by manufacturers. Calibrations traceable to the International System of Units (SI) provide an independent and comprehensible characterization of seismometers. These calibrations take part in a laboratory using an electrodynamic shaker or shake table. To overcome the issue that seismometers placed in seismic stations are not supposed to be moved to a calibration laboratory, novel on-site calibration methods incorporating a reference seismometer were developed. Such a reference is placed near the sensor to be calibrated, and the transfer function of the seismometer under test can be derived based on the output of both sensors.
期刊介绍：
pure and applied geophysics (pageoph), a continuation of the journal "Geofisica pura e applicata", publishes original scientific contributions in the fields of solid Earth, atmospheric and oceanic sciences. Regular and special issues feature thought-provoking reports on active areas of current research and state-of-the-art surveys.
Long running journal, founded in 1939 as Geofisica pura e applicata
Publishes peer-reviewed original scientific contributions and state-of-the-art surveys in solid earth and atmospheric sciences
Features thought-provoking reports on active areas of current research and is a major source for publications on tsunami research
Coverage extends to research topics in oceanic sciences
