Past tiltmeter projects: Aleutians and Southern California
Several reports are to be included someday .... In the mean time, look up the references on my "vitae" page, particularly the JGR article "Shallow Borehole Tilt: a Reprise".
The current project is the beam balance tiltmeter funded in October 1999 by the NSF. The design is to detect pure tilt but not horizontal acceleration, so that local tilt noise can be removed from broadband horizontal seismic data.
The abstract for the 2000 fall AGU describes the project. A revised version of this poster was presented at the 2001 SSA meeting in San Francisco on April 18, 2001.
See the Latest Abstract on another page.
As time allows, I will post the entire poster presentation, including the figures and photos as I get time to scan them. You are encouraged to send me email to prod me along.
I have attempted here to present the text only of the poster. See the Poster text listing for the text.
I will eventually also include here some, if not all, of the detailed technical report on the instrument design and development, which I completed around 1 Oct 00. The report comprises 43 pages of text and 27 pages of figures and drawings.
A number of people have tried to read it, but the only feedback I have received is of the order: "Nice report.... well written .... as far as I got .... about page 5". I can only assume that since it was rather difficult and highly technical for me to write, it may be almost impossible for anyone else to read.
