Nodal Seismic Deployment at KCT and Lost Coast Headlands

August 1, 2023

Between October 12, 2019 and December 13, 2019, the U.S. Geological Survey deployed 30 nodal seismometers in Humboldt county CA for the purpose of recording seismicity in the subducting Gorda plate. 20 instruments were deployed at the McBride ranch, around NCSN station KCT, and 10 were deployed at the Bureau of Land Management's Lost Coast Headlands property. The nodes were replaced in mid-November after one month of recording due to battery life.
