Figure 9. Seismic background noise recorded at station HGN by the STS-2 + Q4120
datalogger (gray) and the STS-1 + gain range datalogger (black). From top
to bottom are shown the north-south (N), east- west (E), and vertical (Z)
components. Each line represents an estimate of the background noise averaged
over one day in 2002. All estimates are corrected for the instrument
response.
