Cascadia2020 Project - Opportunity for Students and Postdocs We hope to recruit field helpers to put 700 small temporary seismometers in the Oregon and southern Washington Coast Ranges this summer. We would install the instruments at the end of May and recover them at the end of June and the second week of July. The Cascadia2020 (https://blogs.uoregon.edu/cascadia2020/) project aims to create a model of the subsurface to better understand seismic hazards associated with the Cascadia Subdu… [more]
