Geophysics and Seismology:Overview A bell will ring when you strike it. Similarly, layers of earth "ring" during an earthquake. What happens to the buildings that are sitting on those layers? Studying the nonlinear elastic wave dynamics of earthquakes is just one aspect of Los Alamos research in geophysics and seismology. Read moreMissionThe knowledge we gain helps us to
GoalWe explore the seismic and acoustic signals that provide information about disturbances, both natural and man made, within the earth's crust. We are interested in the source, source region, and propagation path of vibrations as they travel through the earth's varying geologic structures.
