The inside of a borehole seismometer equipment enclosure is full of batteries, cables, data communications equipment and data recording instruments. Some of the geodetic infrastructure in Yellowstone National Park is colocated with seismic equipment. In this case, the communications downlink radio for the GNSS station is housed with the borehole enc

In this NOAA satellite image from Sept. 15, 2020, Hurricane Sally approaches the U.S. Gulf Coast, Hurricane Paulettte creates storm waves far out in the Atlantic, and Tropical Storms Teddy and Vicky lie near the coast of Africa. Two tropical depressions are also developing; one of them is not visible in this image.

As fire season continues in the western United States let's look back at a number of incidents tracked by officials across California in August. These fires were captured during the day by Landsats 7 and 8, in natural color bands of the visible spectrum. Landsat sensors also record infrared wavelengths revealing burn scars and active fires.
