YGH monitoring station in Yellowstone National Park
Detailed Description
YGH monitoring station near Geyser Hill, Upper Geyser Basin, Yellowstone National Park. Infrasound sensors sit under the brown "hats" that serve as wind screens, and a seismometer is buried nearby. Electronics and batteries are stored in the equipment box, while the tower holds solar panels, weather sensors, and a radio antenna to transmit data in real time. The station came online in September 2026 and is part of the Yellowstone Volcano Observatory's hydrothermal monitoring system.
