Organizational announcements and stories about our work and the science we support.
It’s been 22 years since the NSF first funded an ambitious project to build a large-scale geodetic network we now know as the Network of the Americas. As the NSF GAGE facility award reaches its end, it’s worth looking back at how we got here.
Seismic noise can serve as an indicator of wave action and sea ice coverage offshore.
In the first week of October in 2023, earthquakes struck in a cluster near submarine volcanoes off Japan, producing a tsunami.
A recent study of the hidden seismic hazards within the Golden Triangle region of Laos, Thailand and Myanmar found new faults and interesting patterns in the depths of the fault motion.
Terrestrial Radar Interferometry can help detect how rising sea levels put pressure on Greenland’s Helheim Glacier.
Could a set of local railroad ghost stories be related to small, understudied earthquakes?
Two projects show how remote sensing and geodetic tools can help us study changing ecosystems and landscapes.
Seismic imaging can map out hidden weaknesses around salt caverns used to store oil and gas.
Geophysical instruments make key contributions to some large astrophysics experiments.
This field season, EarthScope staff spent time on Mt. Erebus for some major upgrades to the seismic network, including a new station. Final tally on batteries hauled around by helicopter? About 14,000 pounds.
In early 2023, an incredible amount of precipitation fell on drought-stricken California. The surface effects were quite visible but it’s not quite so easy to track how this affected groundwater.
One recent Antarctic project supports the New Zealand Antarctic Heritage Trust’s work at Discovery Hut, a remnant of Robert Falcon Scott's famous expedition.
