Installation of the first five PAGA CGPS stations!
|
Five continuous GPS systems forming the Puna Andes GPS Array (PAGA) have been installed in NW Argentina in March 2009. PAGA represents the GPS component of the larger interdisciplinary COSA (Convergent Orogenic System Analysis) project. PAGA is a collaboration between ExxonMobil, Universidad Nacional de San Juan, and the Department of Geosciences, University of Arizona. Latest news: The first round of data have been collected from all sites! All sites recorded data continuously since installation. |

Continuous GPS in southern Dalmatia
|
Five continuous GPS monuments were installed during the summer of 2007 and a short semi-continuous occupation ran in early 2008. The network will determine secular deformation rates for studies of the elastic strain rate field associated with ongoing Adria-Dinarides collision, and time dependent deformation associated with slow slip events on the Adria thrust décollement. |

Central Highlands Iceland (CHIL) GPS
| As of August 2008, the CHIL network has grown to 14 continuous GPS stations. CHIL forms a core component of a larger Iceland-wide CGPS network for tectonics. Current status of continous GPS network in Iceland |

Joshua Tree Integrative GPS Network celebrates 2.5 year birthday
|
The Joshua Tree GPS network has reached the 2.5 years mark, and is now producing high precision velocity results. The goal of this project is to gain a better understanding of how strain is transferred from the southern San Andreas fault system to the eastern California shear zone. |

Crustal Deformation of Arizona
|
This project will determine the pattern of diffuse crustal motion in Arizona associated with the Pacific-North America plate bondary. While deformation rates are small, they are measurable and have implications for geodynamics and seismic hazards.
