Dear IRIS Colleagues,
Some of you have been asking how the ongoing partial government shutdown is affecting IRIS and the facilities and services we provide to the IRIS community. IRIS, of course, is funded primarily by the NSF and NSF is one of the Federal agencies facing a lapse in funding during the shutdown. Since IRIS is an independent, non-profit corporation and not part of the government, IRIS employees can continue to work during a shutdown. However, during a shutdown IRIS cannot nor…

In 2019 and 2020, IRIS will establish a new pool of portable
magnetotelluric (MT) systems at the PASSCAL Instrument Center in
Socorro, New Mexico. The facility aims to broaden the participation of
principal investigators in MT research by increasing opportunities for
experiments by non-specialists and encouraging combined seismic-MT
deployments, with user training and data handling support available
through the PIC at no extra cost. The vision for this facility is
described in a previous…

IRIS has finalized a comprehensive report on the design and operation of
the EarthScope Transportable Array in the Lower-48 U.S. This
incorporates community feedback received on a draft version that was
made available in June, includes several expanded and reorganized
sections/figures, and more fully acknowledges of the individuals and
groups that contributed to the success of the project.
The low and high-resolution versions of the report are available here:

Dear IRIS Colleagues,
The National Research Council of the National Academies is conducting a “decadal” study on Catalyzing Opportunities for Research in the Earth Sciences (CORES) for NSF’s Division of Earth Sciences. The purpose of the CORES study is to: (1) identify a concise set of high-priority scientific questions for the next decade, (2) assess infrastructure needed to address these questions, and (3) determine opportunities for greater collaboration with other NSF divisions and direct…
