EARTHQUAKE SEISMICITY CATALOG VOLUME 2
              DIRECTORY STRUCTURE

The root level directories for this CD are DATA, DOCUMENT
and SOFTWARE. These directories are described in more 
detail below:

VOLUME2

  DATA - Contains directories organized by regions or
    by catalog source. Two levels of catalogs exist - 
    composite catalogs containing data from multiple 
    sources and single source catalogs. The composite
    catalogs contain several listings for most earth-
    quakes whereas the single source catalogs generally
    have only one listing per event. Composite catalogs
    are from the National Geophysical Data Center 
    (NGDC) with the suffix "no".

    Most catalogs are in both binary (*.BIN extension) 
    and ASCII (*.DAT extension) format. Each data 
    file also has a corresponding *.FMT file (format 
    description) and *.TAB file (information on the 
    contributor, list of variables with maxima and 
    minima, etc.).
