Today, Moore Foundation-supported researchers at UC Berkeley began installing the first of four borehole seismometers to track tremors under the San Andreas Fault. Moore funding has been used to build the “TremorScope” network and share the data publicly, to improve understanding of the tremor signal and its implications for fault mechanics and earthquake hazards.

You can learn more about the TremorScope project here. And read a media advisory about today’s event here.

 

Help us spread the word.

If you know someone who is interested in this field or what we are doing at the foundation, pass it along.
