Seismic signal recorded on QSPA as function of hour (azimuth) and day
Detailed Description
Seismic signal recorded on QSPA as function of hour (azimuth) and day (radius) over the 2008–2009 field season. The times of the four meals in the day during the field season (including midnight rations, “Midrats”) at Amundson–Scott base are roughly plotted, as well as the start and end of the field season (red and blue circles).

Listening to the Earth at the South Pole
The darkest place on Earth may be deep within a cave, but the quietest place on Earth is deep within the Antarctic ice. If you want to listen to the softest whispers of the Earth, South Pole, Antarctica is where you want to be. Seismic station, QSPA (Quiet South Pole, Antarctica) has been allowing us to eavesdrop on the Earth for over six decades, and it may soon gain the equivalent of a hearing...
