摘要

We explain below why we consider the arguments put forward by Douglas et al., while commenting on the papers by Sikka et al. and Roy et al.5 regarding yield estimation of Indian nuclear tests of 11 and 13 May 1998, as inappropriate. The data used in their calculations comprise log(A/T) values of P-waves available from some non-Indian stations and Hyderabad station in India, corresponding to Indian explosions of 1974 (POKI) and 11 May 1998 (POK2). Of these, some estimates are made by Douglas et al. and the remaining estimates are accepted as such from the NEIC and ISC bulletins. It may be noted that Douglas et al. have observed that some of the reported values to NEIC and ISC were incorrect. An independent surface wave magnitude estimate using data from XAN (China, 32.6 deg) and NIL (Pakistan, 6.6 deg) has also been reported by the authors without mentioning any details of the signals and the relation used for the Ms estimation at NIL, which showed highly attenuated Rayleigh and Lg waves. On the other hand, the seismogram of Bhopal, India at a distance similar (6.3 deg) to that of NIL, showed strong surface waves (see figure 2 of Roy et al.5). One possible reason for the low estimate of Douglas et al. is that proper path effects are not taken into account by them for Ms estimation. The Ms estimate of Douglas et al. from the two stations differs from the NEIC reported estimate (four observations) and the estimate made by us (six regional observations). Douglas et al. have further reported that the maximum yield of POK2 is - 40 kt, whereas this value according to their calculations corresponds to the average value of the yield. The maximum value of the yield according to the calculations of Douglas et al. is in fact - 110 kt.
