#seismometer
Last class of the semester. Topic is climate change and preparing for hazards and disasters. Teacher: "We have to be prepared; an earthquake could happen right now as we talk"

CA Triple Junction: 7.0 mag. quake and tsunami alert.

Here was our recording on the seismometer at Modesto Jr. College.

👀 Wanna open up a modern seismometer and see how they work? 👀

It doesn’t get much more California than an In N Out with a seismometer next to it!
It took some digging, but so did that day of urban node deployment!

The underwater seismometer network is so great, as evidenced from yesterday's EQ off-Tohoku.

Wow! I am currently experiencing serious underwater-seismometer-envy. This is so cool.

the heart monitors are just magic-powered seismometer-like machines that register each heartbeat

My #Raspishake seismometer is about 9.500km away from the M6.0 #earthquake in Taiwan today. The seismic waves arrived here in Herne, Germany approximately 13 mins after origin time. 🧪⚒️

My #Raspishake seismometer is about 17,100km away from the M6.5 #earthquake south of Fiji Islands last evening. The seismic waves arrived here in Herne, Germany approximately 19 mins after origin time. 🧪 ⚒️ @raspishake.bsky.social

Jayden Daniels couldn't stay on the field this year, but the good news is he's healthy enough to play for Saudi blood money in March!! Commanders are doomed. This guy is not QB1 material.

Daniels will captain a team for Tom Brady's Fanatics Flag Football Classic in Saudi Arabia.

This curious phenomenon was documented by the seismometer at the University of Bergen, which recorded slight vibrations whenever the national team scored a goal. www.wired.com/story/world-...

A M6.6 #earthquake basically on the other side of Earth, and my tiny Raspishake seismometer at home still is like "I felt that" 20 minutes later, when the seismic waves arrived. 🧪⚒️ @raspishake.bsky.social

The #California #earthquake was so big it was clearly felt by my Raspishake seismometer in Herne, Germany. ⚒️

California #earthquake showing up nicely on the seismic station here in Bloomington, Indiana. (Vertical trace, iirc)

Strong #earthquake with a magnitude of M5.3 in Iceland just a few minutes ago. Close to Bardarbunga volcano. Here's the seismic signal of my Raspishake seismometer, which is 2000 km away from the epicenter. 🧪⚒️ #geology

Guralp CMG 3T 120sec 50hz Broadband Seismometer, all bench tests pass. 3 axes unlocked without issue after being decommissioned in 2018 from Alaska. Found for $150 on eBay.

Time to digitize it with a raspberry pi

This would get you something like a third of a seismometer.
In the wake of the ongoing disasters with funding streams, I'm seeing lots of folks suggest that scientists turn to social media crowdfunding to fund their research.

For about a decade I held the record for the social media crowdfunded project that got the most funding. I received about $9,000.

Welcome @dentonseismo.bsky.social to Bluesky, who invented the Lego seismometer that I have. 😁 ⚒️🧪

Quite a big #earthquake with a magnitude of M6.0 about 60 northeast of Anchorage, #Alaska, a few minutes ago. Here's the seismic signal of my Raspishake seismometer 11 mins after origin time in Herne, Germany, which is 7300 km away from the epicenter. 🧪⚒️ #geology @raspishake.bsky.social

The most California thing I ever did during grad school: deployed a seismometer next to an In-N-Out burger
It took some digging, but so did that day of urban node deployment!

My #Raspishake seismometer is about 8.450km away from the powerful M7.6 #earthquake in north of Honduras tonight. The seismic waves arrived here in Herne, Germany approximately 12 mins after origin time. 🧪⚒️

My #Raspishake seismometer is about 2.050km away from the moderate M5.1 #earthquake in Iceland late yesterday evening. The seismic waves arrived here in Herne, Germany approximately 4 mins after origin time. 🧪⚒️

The seismic waves from the M7.3 earthquake near Vanuatu have started rolling under us here in California (far too small to feel but not too small to be detected).

Big earthquakes can be detected around the world!
