Description
Project will deploy 30 ocean bottom seismometers at the Quebrada/Discovery/Gofar transform fault system on the quatorial East Pacific Rise for a period of one year to study the mechanical processes that control earthquake nucleation and teh relative partitioning of seismic ans aseismic fault slip.
