Sound that's too high-pitched to hear unless you're a dog or a bat. But what about infra sound? There is sound that's too low to hear, and the Earth scientists paying attention to it have things to show us. Human ears can register sound down to about 20 hertz, the deepest bass note. Infrasonics researchers are interested in sounds of 10 Hz and below, all the way down to 0.001 Hz. Lower than that is meteorology! In fact, this frequency range is the same one that seismographs use for monitoring earthquakes. Some peculiar things go on down there. Earthquakes, as you might expect, shake the air along with the ground, creating seismic infrasound that can travel far from the epicenter. Volcanoes make some pretty impressive infrasound. Big storms at sea generate waves in the air, called microbaroms, from the water waves beneath. (Examples of all of these are shown on the authoritative

In areas where sufficient ground penetration is achieved, GPR can provide a detailed picture of the subsurface without the need for disturbing the ground. The most common way of acquiring GPR data is to tow an antenna slowly over the ground and to obtain profiles which are interpreted as cross sections of the ground. One of the main difficulties with the GPR technique is interpretation. Profiles commonly exhibit so many subsurface features that it is difficult to interpret what they all represent. It is difficult to look at an anomaly on one profile line and be certain that it is the same as what is observed on another profile. D'Appolonia, working in association with Michigan Technological University, has conducted research to improve the interpretability of the GPR method. Our research has focused on obtaining three-dimensional data sets which can be interpreted in terms of horizontal slices of the ground, rather than as vertical profiles. To illustrate this concept, the vertical profile obtained over a buried 55-gallon drum can be compared to a time slice obtained from the 3D data set obtained over the same buried drum. The profile obtained over the drum is affected by the drum, but the interpretation is ambiguous. The 22 ns time slice from the 3D data set, however, clearly locates the position of the drum and distinguishes the drum anomaly from other reflections originating from the soil. Our future GPR research will be aimed at obtaining 3D interpretations in real time.

Earthquakes? At Sunset Crater Volcano? Measuring Earthquakes at Sunset Crater Seismograms: up close and personal Where it all starts Watch out for the waves! Earthquakes and volcanoes (coming soon) Measuring Earthquakes at Sunset Crater If you've ever experienced an earthquake first hand, you know that earthquakes produce vibrations. Sometimes BIG vibrations. These vibrations can be detected by sensitive devices called seismometers . Data from the seismometer is sent to a seismograph where it is recorded. seismogram , is removed and replaced with a new one. Scientists then analyze the earthquake data from the seismogram. Seismographs can help us determine the time, epicenter focus , and the type of faulting that produced an earthquake as well as estimate how much energy was released. Seismograms: up close and personal Where it all starts The story starts beneath the surface. As you may know, the continents we live on are parts of moving plates . Most of the action takes place where plates meet. Plates may collide, pull apart, or scrape past each other. All this stress and strain builds up in the rock until it simply can't take it any more. All at once, CRACK!, the rock fractures and the two rocky blocks move in opposite directions along a

GEOL 100 Geology: Principles and Applications Lab 4: Seismology Dr. J. G. Anderson, Spring 1995 This lab has three objectives: Locate an earthquake. Determine the magnitude of an earthquake. Find the energy of the earthquake and put it into perspective of the energy of a more familiar object. Objective 1. Locate an earthquake The principles of locating an earthquake are not difficult. The earthquake sends out different kinds of waves that travel at different speeds. At a station, they thus arrive at different times. The difference in travel times is proportional to the distance. Below we show examples of seismograms. In this, you should learn to identify two kinds of waves, the P-wave and the S-wave. The travel time difference is described algebraically as follows: Let R be the distance from an earthquake to a station. Let V p be the speed of the P-wave. Let V s be the speed of the S-wave. The P wave will arrive at the station at time t p = R/V p The S wave will arrive at the station at time t s = R/V s Subtracting, one gets:

14.0 SOILS, GEOLOGY AND SEISMOLOGY 14.1 Applicability This analysis will address constructibility issues - soils, bedrock location, topography and slopes, groundwater depth, and other geotechnical conditions, as documented in existing literature and, to the degree necessary, as investigated on-site and along interconnection routes. The Siting Board regulations also explicitly require an evaluation of geology and seismology. 16 NYCRR 1001.3(b)1(v). Furthermore, the Public Service Law requires that an Application contain, "as appropriate, geological... tsunami, [and] seismic" data. PSL164.1(a). The potential for active seismological faults and earthquakes that could cause ground motion, liquefaction, slope instability and deformation will therefore be addressed in the Application. The analyses to be performed are described below as well as in Stipulation 8. 14.2 Geotechnical Analysis 14.2.1 Existing Conditions Soils on-site are a result of fill activity in the nineteenth century. Their suitability for supporting building foundations is considered poor. Piles are anticipated to be a potential method of support for the structure of the proposed Project. Bedrock is not likely to be encountered in any of the on-site excavations. The site is located in an area of the East River marked by soft soils and bedrock that is much deeper than along most of the East River. Grading and stability of slopes, other than those in temporary construction cuts and fills, should not be a concern because the site slopes very gently from the East River up toward Kent Avenue.
