Comment on this resource
Users can access the array of seismometers operated by the the University of California at Berkeley's Seismological Laboratory in northern and central California. The Berkeley Digital Seismic Network is an array of high-dynamic range, broadband seismometers. Data from these instruments are transmitted continuously to UC Berkeley for processing and analysis. Using the interface, visitors may create a seismogram by selecting the desired station, channel, time period, and plotting parameters.
