Title: Near-Surface Seismic Survey in the Bronx
Description: USGS hydrologists prepare equipment for a multi-channel analysis of surface waves (MASW) land seismic imaging survey. In this picture, the accelerated weight-drop energy source (blue box) is attached to the back of a vehicle. This relatively new system allows for inexpensive and rapid data acquisition. The survey was conducted as part of an applied research effort by the USGS Office of Groundwater Branch of Geophysics in the Bronx, New York, in 2007.
