Abstract

The use of Nodal systems based on autonomous geophone-based instruments entered the field of Seismology only recently. These lightweight solutions revolutionized seismological fieldwork through lightweight and wholistic instruments that are faster to deploy and easier to handle. The IGU-16HR series of SmartSolo® is one example, but yet lacking a thorough lab-based performance analysis. Here, we fill the knowledge gap, by performing a series of lab and field-based tests that focus on the sensors performance. The investigated parameters are the instruments transfer function, self-noise and overall performance to classical seismometer-based inst...  more
