Purpose
|
1. To detect and locate earthquake activity in the
Northeast gulf of Alaska (NEGOA). 2. To obtain measuremenst of
seafloor accelerations accompanying both strong and weak
earthquakes. 3. To demonstrate and evaluate the effeectiveness of
the USGS OBIPs when used in the seismic refraction mode.
