A ~70 km transect of 3C nodes would be deployed for ~30 days. Valles caldera would be in the center of the array and it would take advantage of forest roads that enable a roughly SSW-NNE strike for a nearly linear deployment. The primary goals are to use noise interferometry and teleseismic earthquakes for imaging the magmatic system. Additionally, we will investigate the potential occurrence of low-magnitude seismicity (M<1.5) that would not be detected by publicly available networks.
