EarthScope in Alaska

What is EarthScope, USArray, and Transportable Array? Go here for details.

Following its deployment on the east coast of the United States in 2013, EarthScope's Transportable Array is proposed to be deployed to Alaska. This page, maintained by the Seismology and Geodesy Group at the Geophysical Institute of the University of Alaska Fairbanks, contains links to several workshops and reports documenting scientific objectives of EarthScope in Alaska. Feel free to email Jeff Freymueller or Carl Tape with comments or suggestions.

The open circles in the figure below denote the potential TA station sites in Alaska.
