Maps of the currents and proposed seismic network station locations at Mount Adams.

Maps of the currents and proposed seismic network station locations at Mount Adams. To improve seismic monitoring capabilities, CVO has permission from the U.S. Forest Service to install temporary seismic stations south and southwest of Mount Adams. The seismic stations are part of CVO’s rapid deployment instrument packages that can be deployed quickly as needed.

Data from the new temporary stations will be transmitted in real-time to CVO and PNSN along with data from the existing permanent station. This will improve our ability to locate smaller earthquakes with more certainty and assist in understanding the cause of these earthquakes. The results of our findings will determine if any additional actions are needed.
