Summary

In April of 2021, the U.S. Geological Survey conducted a high-resolution seismic survey at Mee Ranch in Monterey County, California. Both passive- and active-source seismic data were acquired using DTCC SmartSolo 3-component nodal seismograph systems ("nodes"), which continuously recorded data at rates up to 2000 samples per second. For passive-source acquisition, a 6x5 grid of nodes was deployed for several weeks before and during the active source shooting. For active-source acquisition, 395 nodes were deployed 1 meter apart (2 meters apart near the endpoints) along a southwest-northeast trend to create an approximately 500-m-long linear array. Additional nodes were deployed at 1 or 2 meter spacing along 25- and 50-m-long linear [...]
