After
five days in North Carolina we have recovered all of the 80 stations. The
stations have been recording for one month along two profiles. Now we are
downloading the data at the instrument center at the East Carolina University
in Greenville. The last step is getting
the equipment ready for shipping back to PASSCAL in New Mexico.
Beatrice (Bix), Dan and Ana working onsite
at the first station recovered. Bix and Ana are checking the parameters of the
Reftek with the CLIE, and Dan is saving the GPS waypoint of the recovery site.
Yanjun working on one of the stations
recovered on the north line. He is performing a check with the CLIE to see the
number of events recorded, the data stored on the disks and stopping the
acquisition. He also checks all 3 channels on the L28 sensor. Once the
acquisition has been stopped, the sensor can be pulled and the station is taken
back to the instrument center.
A few of the Refteks at the instrument center. The upward cap indicates
that the data have been downloaded.

month.

our hard labor!
