Earthquake Monitoring at Newberry Volcano

Newberry Volcano was once thought to be one of the most seismically quiet of the monitored volcanoes in Washington and Oregon before a major seismic network upgrade in 2011. Since the new stations were installed, there have been an average of 10-15 earthquakes located per year by the PNSN within the caldera.
