Experiments Being Conducted with IRIS Equipment http://www.iris.edu/ 2009-11-20T20:36:56+00:00 IRIS http://www.iris.edu/hq/news/story/august_september_2009_new_mexico_earthquake_swarm_in_the_central_rio_grande#When:19:36:56Z

Seismicity in central New Mexico, southwestern United States, is dominated by earthquakes occurring above the mid-crustal Socorro Magma Body (SMB).Beginning in late August 2009, a very productive swarm of over 580 earthquakes (as of September 17, 2009) marks the most active period since 2005.

In July 2009, several IRIS/PASSCAL scientists assisted with the Batholiths Onland project. This large group effort involved over 50 scientists and grad students, for the purpose of making "a seismic refraction and wide-angle reflection survey across the Coast Mountains batholith of British Columbia, Canada."

In July and August of 2009, seven scientists deployed several seismic sensors for a two-year multidisciplinary study of one of the world's most active volcanoes, the Sierra Negra Volcano of the Galápagos Islands.

Why is eastern Oregon's High Lava Plains so volcanically active? None of the accepted paradigms about crustal formation and magmatism fit eastern Oregon.
