Broadband Seismic Data Collection Center
Earth
Seismology and Earthquake Physics
The study of earthquakes, the propagation of seismic waves, and Earth's internal structure.
Academics
Centers, Labs, and Programs
We work in several different areas in infrasonics: source studies, propagation modeling, array processing, and wind noise reduction.
Tectonics and hydrogeology.
Develops geophysical instruments including sensors for detection of seismic, infrasonic, and crustal deformation signals.
Supports Internet-data applications in the research, education, and public safety realms in San Diego, Riverside, and Imperial counties.
Focuses on physics-based signal processing mostly using just weak noise as a source.
Processes and archives high-precision GPS data for the study of earthquake hazards, tectonic plate motion, crustal deformation and meteorology.
A continental scale seismic observatory.
