The float rig supporting the OBS is towed to the deployment site on Skilak Lake with Hannah Brewer (WHOI) on board. This is part of a USGS effort, in collaboration with partners from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Ocean Bottom Seismic Instrument Center, to create a record of past earthquakes from Skilak Lake on the Kenai Peninsula of Alaska.

Tim Kane (WHOI) on Skilak Lake, Alaska during field work with USGS to create a record of past earthquakes from Skilak Lake on the Kenai Peninsula of Alaska. In May 2024, they deployed two seismographs on the bottom of the lake and eight seismographs on land around the lake. Each instrument will collect data there for about 1 year.
