DOI 10.3103/s1068335622100086
Data confidence 85 high
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Abstract At the Tien Shan Mountain Station of the Lebedev Physical Institute, equipment was developed for continuous multichannel monitoring of the radiation background intensity, both in the surface atmosphere and at a depth of 50–100 m below the ground surface, as well as for recording of electromagnetic fields, acoustic signals, and groundwater level variations in the deep borehole at the station territory. The objective of the experiment is the search for characteristic signals-indicators of increasing seismic activity in the earthquake-prone region surrounding the Tien Shan station. This report describes the system of detectors installed in the underground borehole and presents some experimental results confirming the prospects for such studies for the search for earthquake signals-precursors.
