Low-Noise Front End Protection

It shows a 1K series input resistor for protection. It's only a reference design and not guaranteed to be a robust, production ready design of course. 1K has approx 4nV/sqrt(Hz) which is similar to the opamp's noise, but noise and bandwidth limitations allowing, somewhat higher resistance could be used.
[EDIT] Of course the circuit note author may save assumed a securely mounted sensor not susceptible to hard knocks.
