Abstract:
Part of the Salton Seismic Imaging Project (SSIP), this 2011 survey of the Salton Trough collected 48-channel MCS and OBS data with a deep acquisition system tailored to enhance penetration. A 17 m motor vessel towed a 30 m barge from which the instruments were deployed. SALTON2010 was a companion survey in 2010. The objectives were to image the structure beneath the trough and to improve the understanding of the San Andreas Fault system and earthquake hazard in the region. Funded by NSF grant OCE 0927446.
