STUDY OF RECORDS A study of the three sets of seismograms reveals four distinct record characteristics. The first five seismograms of profile B, Plate 2, break sharply and plot on the surface velocity curve; the next four seismograms do not break sharply but have a small wave of short period for the first impulse followed by a wave with a sharp break and large amplitude. The small impulse and the sharp break were 374.
