Have you considered using an absolute pathname on the find (i.e. find "$PWD" ... instead of find . ...) and moving to the directory in which you want the files to be created before invoking mseed2sac instead of moving all of the files mseed2sac creates after it is done?
Your script will run faster and use fewer system resources if you change:
to:
And, I assume that you will also actually invoke mseed2sac and mkdir instead of just including them in comments and echo statements. (This also applies to mv if you decide to ignore my first suggestion above.)

Hello,
I would like to list the files from all directories that has been modified more than 1 month ago, and whose name is like '*risk*log'.
I think a script like this should work :
ls -R | find -name '*risk*.log' -mtime 30 -type f
But it tells me "no file found" though I can see some.

latexml::util::pathname
LaTeXML::Util::Pathname(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation LaTeXML::Util::Pathname(3pm)NAME
"LaTeXML::Util::Pathname" - portable pathname and file-system utilities
DESCRIPTION
This module combines the functionality File::Spec and File::Basename to give a consistent set of filename utilties for LaTeXML. A pathname
is represented by a simple string.
Pathname Manipulations
"$path = pathname_make(%peices);"
Constructs a pathname from the keywords in pieces
dir : directory
name : the filename (possibly with extension)
type : the filename extension
"($dir,$name,$type) = pathname_split($path);"
Splits the pathname $path into the components: directory, name and type.
"$path = pathname_canonical($path);"
Canonicallizes the pathname $path by simplifying repeated slashes, dots representing the current or parent directory, etc.
"$dir = pathname_directory($path);"
Returns the directory component of the pathname $path.
"$name = pathname_name($path);"
Returns the name component of the pathname $path.
"$type = pathname_type($path);"
Returns the type component of the pathname $path.
"$path = pathname_concat($dir,$file);"
Returns the pathname resulting from concatenating the directory $dir and filename $file.
"$boole = pathname_is_absolute($path);"
Returns whether the pathname $path appears to be an absolute pathname.
"$path = pathname_relative($path,$base);"
Returns the path to file $path relative to the directory $base.
"$path = pathname_absolute($path,$base);"
Returns the absolute pathname resulting from interpretting $path relative to the directory $base. If $path is already absolute, it is
returned unchanged.
File System Operations
"$modtime = pathname_timestamp($path);"
Returns the modification time of the file named by $path, or undef if the file does not exist.
"$path = pathname_cwd();"
Returns the current working directory.
"$dir = pathname_mkdir($dir);"
Creates the directory $dir and all missing ancestors. It returns $dir if successful, else undef.
"$dest = pathname_copy($source,$dest);"
Copies the file $source to $dest if needed; ie. if $dest is missing or older than $source. It preserves the timestamp of $source.
"$path = pathname_find($name,%options);"
Finds the first file named $name that exists and that matches the specification in the keywords %options. An absolute pathname is
returned.
If $name is not already an absolute pathname, then the option "paths" determines directories to recursively search. It should be a
list of pathnames, any relative paths are interpreted relative to the current directory. If "paths" is omitted, then the current
directory is searched.
If the option "installation_subdir" is given, it indicates, in addition to the above, a directory relative to the LaTeXML installation
directory to search. This allows files included with the distribution to be found.
The "types" option specifies a list of filetypes to search for. If not supplied, then the filename must match exactly.
"@paths = pathname_findall($name,%options);"
Like "pathname_find", but returns all matching paths that exist.
