A team of USGS scientists, in collaboration with partners from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution Ocean Bottom Seismic Instrument Center, are aiming 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.
