estimate_wood_anderson_amplitude_using_response(response, amplitude, timespan)[source]

Estimate the Wood-Anderson amplitude with a given instrument response.

Convert amplitude in counts measured of instrument with given response information for use in estimate_magnitude(). Amplitude should be measured as full peak to peak amplitude, timespan as difference of the two readings.

Parameters
Returns

Simulated zero to peak displacement amplitude on Wood Anderson seismometer [mm] for use in local magnitude estimation.
