Bubbles, spatter, lava, and tremor linked in Icelandic eruption of Geldingadalir
Comparing seismic data and drone imagery near a churning lava lake shows the signal of bursting bubbles.
Chicago’s seismicity captured by single seismic station
Model catalogs quarry blasts, heavy machinery noise, and other anthropogenic signals that can muddy seismic data.
A new map charts sediment thickness across the continental US
No single map of sediment thickness across the conterminous U.S. existed that used a consistent method — until this new one based on Transportable Array seismic data.
EarthScope Consortium awarded National Geophysical Facility
We are thrilled to announce that EarthScope has been selected as the operator of NSF NGF.
An overview of cloud computing in the petabyte era of seismology
If you work with seismic data, put this recent paper on your reading list.
The USArray project was a “think big” moment for seismology
Between 2004 and 2021, seismometers were deployed in more than 2,000 locations as part of the USArray.
Seismic imaging detects changes beneath volcano outside Taipei
The Tatun Volcano Group rises near the Taipei metropolitan area — home to more than 7 million people. Though no record exists of eruptions in human history, recent seismicity indicates that these volcanoes might be growing restive.
Seismic data show what’s driving an Ethiopian geothermal field
The Aluto volcanic complex is Ethiopia’s only geothermal site. Microseismicity reveals volcanic structure and seasonality of earthquakes.
What’s inside the Moon? Seismology can show us
A series of Apollo missions put seismometers on the Moon, allowing us to learn a lot about our neighbor’s interior.
