High-resolution seismic data acquired at northern Año Nuevo, California
The U.S. Geological Survey acquired high-resolution P- and S-wave seismic data across the Frijoles Fault strand of the San Gregorio Fault Zone (SGFZ) at northern Año Nuevo, California in 2012. SGFZ is a right-lateral fault system that is mainly offshore, and prior studies provide highly variable slip estimates, which indicates uncertainty about the seismic hazard it poses. Therefore, the primary goal of the seismic survey was to better understand the structure and geometry of the onshore section of the Frijoles Fault strand of the SGFZ. We deployed 118 geophones (channels) at 5-m spacing along a linear profile centered on the mapped surface trace of the Frijoles Fault and co-located active P- and S-wave sources at ~1-m offset from the geophones. Channel numbers increase from west to east along the profile. We generated P-waves using either a seisgun (www.utep.edu/science/ssf/Manuals/betsy_seisgun.pdf, accessed August 2022) or an accelerated weight-drop and S-waves by horizontally striking an aluminum block on both sides with a sledgehammer. We first deployed vertical-component geophones (40-Hz, SercelTM L40A, sensitivity of 22.34 volts/meter/second) to record P-wave sources, after which we replaced the vertical-component geophones with horizontal-component geophones (4.5-Hz, SercelTM L28-LBH, sensitivity of 31.3 volts/meter/second) to record S-wave sources. Refraction cables connected all geophones to two 60-channel Geometrics Stratavisor NX-60TM seismographs with 24-bit analog-to-digital converters. Each shot was recorded at a 0.5-ms sampling rate for two seconds, with data recording at 100 ms before the actual time of the shot. This data release provides the metadata needed to utilize the seismic data. Data Format and Files We combined each seismic trace for a given shot time into a shot gather, and the traces in each shot gather are ordered by channel numbers (1-118) based on the position of the geophones along the profile. Furthermore, we assigned a unique field number (FFID) to each shot gather, and we combined the shot gathers recorded from both seismographs into two SEG-Y files (Barry et al., 1975), 78023.segy (channels 1 to 60) and marine.segy (channels 61 to 118), which are stored in big-Endian, 4-byte IBM-floating-point format (format code 1). Data samples are in millivolts and can be converted to velocity using the geophone sensitivity values. Metadata for all profiles are contained in two text files and one xml file: PIE12.setup.csv, PIE12.location.csv, and PIE12Metadata.xml. The setup file describes the identification of shots recorded by the two seismographs, channel number, recording stations (geophones), and the source type for both SEG-Y files. The location file describes the channel number, latitude, and longitude of all geophone locations.

High-resolution seismic data from the Frijoles Fault of the San Gregorio Fault zone, Año Nuevo, California
공공데이터포털
The U.S. Geological Survey acquired high-resolution P- and S-wave seismic data across the Frijoles Fault strand of the San Gregorio Fault Zone (SGFZ) at Año Nuevo, California in 2012. The SGFZ is a Holocene-active, dominantly right-lateral fault system that trends more than 200 km along the California coastline. The Frijoles Fault is one of several onshore strands of the SGF system, and together the strands represent a 3- to 4-km wide fault zone at Año Nuevo. Prior paleoseismology studies indicate highly variable slip-rate estimates, indicating considerable uncertainty about the slip history of the SGFZ and the seismic hazard it poses. Amongst the onshore strands of the SGFZ at Año Nuevo, the Frijoles Fault presented the fewest logistical challenges for our seismic survey; thus, the goal of this data acquisition was to better understand the structure, geometry, and precise location of the Frijoles Fault strand of the SGFZ at Año Nuevo.
High-resolution seismic data acquired at two seismic recording stations (BK.LIND and BK.KARE) in San Joaquin Valley, California
공공데이터포털
In November of 2021, the U.S. Geological Survey acquired high-resolution P- and S-wave seismic data at two seismic recording stations in Tulare and Fresno counties, California: Berkeley Digital Seismic Network BK.LIND and BK.KARE. We deployed 60 DTCC SmartSolo 3-component nodal seismometers (“nodes”) at 2-m intervals along a linear array at each seismic recording station. The nodes recorded seismic data continuously at a 0.5-ms sampling interval, and shot timing was recorded by GPS event capture hardware to precisely determine the shot times. We generated active-source P-waves by vertically striking a steel plate with a 3.5-kg sledgehammer, and active-source S-waves by horizontally striking an aluminum block with a 3.5-kg sledgehammer. The active-sources were generated at about 1-m offset from the nodes along the arrays.
High-resolution seismic data acquired at six Southern California Seismic Network (SCSN) recording stations in 2017
공공데이터포털
In August 2017, the U.S. Geological Survey acquired high-resolution P- and S-wave seismic data near six Southern California Seismic Network (SCSN) recording stations in southern California: CI.OLI Olinda; CI.SRN Serrano; CI.MUR Murrieta; CI.LCG La Cienega; CI.RUS Rush; and CI.STC Santa Clara (Figure 1). These strong-motion recording stations are located inside Southern California Edison electrical substations, critical infrastructures that provide essential services to millions of customers. The primary goals of the seismic survey were to understand the potential for amplified ground shaking and to evaluate lateral variability in shear-wave velocity at these sites. We deployed up to 88 geophones at 2-m or 4-m spacing along seven linear profiles surrounding the stations and collocated P- and S-wave sources at ~1-m offset from the geophones. We generated P waves using three types of active sources: a 226-kg vertical accelerated weight-drop (AWD), a 3.5-kg sledgehammer and steel plate combination, and a 2.7-kg hammer and steel plate combination. Active-source S-waves were generated by horizontally striking an aluminum block with a 3.5-kg sledgehammer and by striking a 45-angle aluminum block with a 45°-angle AWD. We first deployed vertical-component geophones (40-Hz, SercelTM L40A, sensitivity of 22.34 volts/meter/second) to record P-wave shots, after which the vertical-component geophones were replaced with horizontal-component geophones (4.5-Hz, SercelTM L28-LBH, sensitivity of 31.3 volts/meter/second) to record S-wave shots. All data were recorded using up to two 60-channel Geometrics Stratavisor NX-60TM seismographs with 24-bit analog-to-digital converters. The seismographs were connected to the geophones via refraction cables. Each shot was recorded at a 0.5-ms sampling rate for two seconds, with data recording starting 100 ms before the actual time of the shot. Ambient noise data were recorded with vertical-component geophones at a 2-ms sampling rate for 120 seconds. This report provides the metadata needed to utilize the seismic data.

High-resolution seismic data acquired near seismic station CE.57213 in Fremont, California
공공데이터포털
In September 2021, the U.S. Geological Survey acquired high-resolution P- and S-wave data near seismic station CE.57213 in Fremont, California, approximately 100 m east of the mapped trace of the Hayward Fault. We acquired the seismic data to evaluate the time-averaged shear-wave velocity in the upper 30 m (VS30) and to better understand ground-shaking near the station CE.57213. The seismic data were acquired using a linear array of SmartSolo 3-component nodal seismometers (nodes), which continuously recorded at 2000 samples per second (0.5-ms sampling rate). We deployed 60 nodes, spaced at 2-m increments, along a 180-m-long, northeast-southwest-trending linear array. We generated P-wave seismic sources (shots) adjacent to each node at a 1-m offset using a 3.5-kg sledgehammer to vertically strike a steel plate on the ground surface. S-wave sources (shots) were generated adjacent to each node by horizontally striking an aluminum block with a 3.5-kg sledgehammer. For each shot point, we extracted approximately 2 seconds of data from each node following the shot times, combined the seismic traces into a single shot gather, and stored the data in SEG-Y format (Barry et al, 1975). This report provides the metadata needed to analyze the seismic data.
High-resolution seismic data acquired at six seismic network recording stations in San Bernardino County, California in 2019
공공데이터포털
In May 2019, the U.S. Geological Survey acquired high resolution P- and S-wave seismic data near six seismic network recording stations in San Bernardino County, California: Southern California Seismic Network CI.CLT Calelectic, CI.MLS Mira Loma, CI.CJM Cajon Mountain and CI.HLN Highland; California Strong Motion Instrumentation Program station CE.23542; and US National Strong-Motion Network station NP.5326 (Figure 1). The primary goals of the seismic survey were to better understand the potential for amplified ground shaking, to evaluate lateral variability in shear-wave velocity, and to calculate Vs30 at these sites. We deployed up to 67 DTCC SmartSolo 3-component seismometer systems ("nodes") at 2-m spacing along six linear arrays and collocated P- and S-wave sources at ~1-m offset from the nodes. We generated active-source P-waves using a 3.5-kg sledgehammer and steel plate combination. Active-source S-waves were generated by horizontally striking an aluminum block with a 3.5-kg sledgehammer. SmartSolo nodes are standalone seismometers with 3-component sensors (5-Hz corner frequency and sensitivity of 76.7 volts/meter/second), battery, and built-in GPS to record location and time. The nodes recorded seismic data continuously at a 0.5-ms sampling rate, and shot timing was recorded by GPS event capture hardware to precisely determine the shot times. For some individual surveys, the nodes were buried a few inches below the ground surface to reduce noise. This report provides the metadata needed to utilize the seismic data.

Data report for line 8 of the 2011 USGS seismic imaging survey at San Andreas Lake, San Mateo County, California
공공데이터포털
In June of 2011, the U.S. Geological Survey acquired high-resolution P- and S-wave seismic data across the mapped (Schussler, 1906) trace of the San Andreas Fault zone at San Andreas Lake in unincorporated San Mateo County, California. Our seismic survey consisted of seismic reflection, refraction, and guided-wave data along a 60-m-long profile. To acquire the reflection and refraction data we co-located shots and geophones, spaced every meter along the profile. We used 59 SercelTM L40A, P-wave (40-Hz vertical-component) geophones (sensitivity of 22.34 volts/meter/second) to record 59 P-wave shots and 59 SercelTM L28-LBH, S-wave (4.5-Hz horizontal-component) geophones (sensitivity of 31.3 volts/meter/second)to record 59 S-wave shots. We generated P-wave data using a charge from a Betsy SeisgunTM, with the charge placed approximately 0.4 meters (16 inches) beneath the ground surface. The charge consisted of an 8-gauge, 400-grain, blank shotgun shell. S-wave sources were generated by horizontally striking an aluminum block with a 3.5-kg sledgehammer. We acquired fault-zone-guided-wave data using approximately one pound of explosives within a mapped trace of the San Andreas Fault, approximately 1.74 km NNW of the recording arrays. The explosives were placed in a 5-cm (2 inch) diameter borehole approximately 3-meter (10 feet) deep. All data were recorded using a 60-channel Geometrics Stratavisor NX-60TM seismograph with a 24-bit analog-to-digital converter and a roll-along descaling factor, and the output data are in SEG-Y format (Barry et al, 1975). Each in-line shot was recorded for two seconds, with data recording starting 100 ms before the actual time of the shot. Data were recorded at a sampling rate of 0.5 ms, or 2000 samples per second. This report provides the metadata needed to analyze the seismic data.

공공데이터포털
In March 2015, the U.S. Geological Survey acquired seismic reflection and refraction data along an approximately 2.8-km-long profile across northwest-trending San Andreas Fault splays located at the Dos Palmas Preserve east of Salton Sea. To acquire the reflection and refraction data, we collocated shots and geophones, spaced every 3 m along the profile. We used 933 SercelTM L40A P-wave (40-Hz vertical-component) geophones with a sensitivity of 22.34 volts/meter/second to record 925 P-wave shots. We generated P-wave data using one of two active sources: 400-grain Betsy-SeisgunTM shots at approximately every 90 m and a 3.5-kg sledgehammer and steel plate combination at every 3 m between the seisgun shots. All data were recorded using four 60-channel Geometrics Stratavisor NX-60TM seismographs with a 24-bit analog-to-digital converter (Subcommittee of the SEG Engineering and Groundwater Geophysics Committee, 1990); the seismographs were connected to the P-wave geophones via refraction cables. Each shot was recorded for two seconds, with data recording starting 100 ms before the actual time of the shot. Data were recorded at a sampling rate of 0.5 ms, or 2000 samples per second.

공공데이터포털
In September 2017, the U.S. Geological Survey acquired high resolution P- and S-wave seismic data across the suspected trace of the West Napa Fault zone in St. Helena, California, approximately 70 m north of the previous seismic survey conducted in April 2017 (Chan et al., 2018). We acquired seismic reflection, refraction, and guided-wave data along a 75-m-long profile across the expected trend of the West Napa Fault zone. To acquire the reflection and refraction data, we co-located shots and geophones, spaced every 1 and 2 m along the profile. We used 77 SercelTM L40A P-wave (40-Hz vertical-component) geophones with a sensitivity of 22.34 volts/meter/second to record 60 P-wave shots, and 77 SercelTM L28-LBH S-wave (4.5-Hz horizontal-component) geophones with a sensitivity of 31.3 volts/meter/second to record 60 S-wave shots. We generated P-wave data using a 3.5-kg sledgehammer and steel plate combination. S-wave sources were generated by horizontally striking an aluminum block with a 3.5-kg sledgehammer. We acquired fault zone guided wave data by generating P-wave (226-kg accelerated weight-drop, AWD) and S-wave (angle AWD) energies approximately 160 m north of the recording arrays. All data were recorded using one 60-channel Geometrics Stratavisor NX-60TM seismograph with a 24-bit analog-to-digital converter (Subcommittee of the SEG Engineering and Groundwater Geophysics Committee, 1990); the seismograph was connected to the P- and S-wave geophones via refraction cables.

In April 2017, the U.S. Geological Survey acquired high resolution P- and S-wave seismic data across the suspected trace of the West Napa Fault zone in St. Helena, California. We acquired seismic reflection, refraction, and guided-wave data along a 215-m-long profile across the expected trend of the West Napa Fault zone. To acquire the reflection and refraction data, we co-located shots and geophones, spaced every 2 m along the profile. We used 109 SercelTM L40A P-wave (40-Hz vertical-component) geophones with a sensitivity of 22.34 volts/meter/second to record 108 P-wave shots, and 109 SercelTM L28-LBH S-wave (4.5-Hz horizontal-component) geophones with a sensitivity of 31.3 volts/meter/second to record 108 S-wave shots. We generated P-wave data using one of two active sources depending on site accessibility: a 226-kg accelerated weight drop (AWD) and a 3.5-kg sledgehammer and steel plate combination. S-wave sources were generated by horizontally striking an aluminum block with a 3.5-kg sledgehammer. We acquired fault zone guided wave data by generating P- (AWD) and S-wave (angle AWD) energy approximately 225 m north of the P- and S-wave recording arrays.

High-resolution active-source seismic data acquired near strong-motion recording stations (NSMP 1849 and NSMP 1870) at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center, Menlo Park, San Mateo County, California
공공데이터포털
On August 24, 2021, the U.S. Geological Survey conducted a high-resolution seismic survey between two strong-motion recording stations located at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center (VAMC) in the City of Menlo Park, San Mateo County, California. The stations are National Strong Motion Project Station (NSMP) 1849 in VAMC building 332 and NSMP Station 1870 in VAMC building 334. The primary goals of the seismic survey are to better understand the potential for amplified ground shaking, to evaluate lateral variability in shear-wave velocity, and to calculate time-averaged shear-wave velocity in the upper 30 m of the subsurface (Vs30) at this site using refraction tomography and multichannel analysis of surface waves (MASW) methods.
