Seismic Survey 2016 Data at San Emidio Nevada
Included here are seismic data recorded at the San Emidio Geothermal field in Nevada. This passive seismic data were collected as part of the DOE-funded Subsurface Technology and Engineering R&D (SubTER) project to advance imaging and characterization of geothermal permeability. In December 2016, 1301 vertical-component seismic instruments were deployed at the San Emidio Geothermal field in Nevada. Data collection spanned a 160 hour timeframe, beginning on December 5th and ending on December 11th. Data are stored as individual files in one-minute increments in SEGD and MSEED formats and are downloadable as a zipped directory or available in a cloud-accessible format. Comprehensive metadata and project summaries are included in GDR submission 1386 (linked below as "2016 Seismic Survey Metadata at San Emidio").
