Whats going on at yellowstone?

can u post an image ??

Wrong again. I had those up too. But post the screen of H17A. It registered near 30 microns for at least one event, if not two. They were much stronger in microns than what you are showing there, meaning: They were closer to H17A. But again, we can't pinpoint the exact location till we get coordinates.

Looks like US.LKWY was only on between 01:30 & 07:15 MST and then...but found it interesting a nice clipped spike @ 03:05 MST @500Mv (that matches near sensors)...

earlier in time is the ultimate discriminator for who is closer ... Propagation paths, attenuation along propagation paths, attenuation conditions around the geophone (weathering layer conditions to solid bedrock [are ESPECIALLY] ) are very important .. amplitude alone is a poor discriminator ....

On GEE, WY stations and TA stations use a different amplitude scale.
You can't really compare them. What is showed in microns/sec on TA.H17, is showed in nanometers on WY network stations like YLT, YLA, YTP, etc.

The events you're talking about occurred near YLT, as my screenshot, with all stations using the same scale and units of measurements, shows.

If you can provide some info to back that up, then I accept you could be correct.

And we'll find out later anyways, when the coordinates are published.

Whoa...US.LKWY...just jumped from 07:00 to 09:00 and shows another spike...is that normal to jump in 2 Hrs increments?

If it is running it must be delayed...hhhmmm

BTW... I do see this spike at TA.H17A also...

First, there are the webicorders. The event you're referring to occurred at 6:35 MST, right? Now I'm listing the links to the webicorders which detected those events in order of amplitude (intensity).

YLT > YTP > YLA > LKWY
Have you noticed how the farther we get from YLT, the fainter the signals become?

Second, the screenshot I posted.

Third, TA stations in GEE use microns/second for amplitude, which does not indicate ground movement, but ground movement velocity (speed). Of course the greater this value, the greater the earthquake, but it's a different thing with a different scale. WY stations indicate ground movement and use nanometers (or microns with bigger earthquakes), not nanometers/sec or microns/sec.

And we'll find out later anyways, when the coordinates are published.

The one occurred at 3:08 MST at LKWY, maybe. Other ones occurred near YLT, as they probably have negative magnitude, most likely not.

I tought I Taw a US.LKWY on GEE!!!! Wheeee...must be someones workin' on it!!


Got excited!

Ok, all things considered at this point, I am going to guess those quakes may have happened southwest, or west of the lake, but in such a place that they were closest to H17A relative to the stations we are discussing.

LWKY is set to 500 vertical microvolts, and combined with my guess on where those occurred, it is entirely possible that LKWY is barely registering them. Also, take a look at my thread and you will see what UTC time I posted.

This link points to the south end of the lake, its gps elevation data...
Can someone look and tell me if I am seeing a drop in elevation there, or if it is just my imagination?
Thanks.

I'll see if I can get a photobucket account and get a screenie of the recent quakes from Google Earth up in the next 10-20...

No Tilting to the N or E but does look like a drop on U ?

I think that Sensor is strung out on a extension cord placed by I395 or Sumptin'...

Well, they finally posted all the EQ's that happened in YS for the 10th.. Why the delay now? There wasn't a delay in Dec.

Guess we'll get the EQ's for the 11th tomorrow. lol.

Hi, I have been reading all the threads since 12-26 and wow Im not sure what to think, then when Yellowstone was posted on hisz.rsoe alert map last night I used their google map option and looked at the site. The white spots at the top of the lake where the quakes were I zoomed in on and I could see red stuff it looked like it could have been lava all around the white areas could some of that have been ash not clouds. I did it again today with google earth since it is gone from the hisz.rseo site, there is red stuff there. It even has the red and white along what looks to be fault lines. The trees in many areas are just sticks, like it is so hot everything else is gone. I dont know please someone else view it and respond look all around its all over. Go all over up from the lake. Am I wrong, is the dirt at Yellowstone red (Ive never been there) please google it and look. Its not the color of red that I have seen in other red dirt areas it looks like fire.

Here's the screenie of the quake line

No.

If all the trees were on fire at Yellowstone, believe me we wouldn't be sitting here interpreting little squiggly lines.

That is not a real time image you are looking at. At any rate, yes, some of the soil and rock formations are red.

Would you like to really look at Yellowstone? It's quite beautiful. Take a look at the Old Faithful webcam (and keep in mind the lens is always dirty - this is snow and dirt, not ash, and that all that steam and erupting geysers is absolutely normal Yellowstone activity.)

Also note that google earth map seems to be cut and pasted together. Above the lake why???? What can we not see... Its like part is an older version. The one on the hisz alert site was much better and not cut like this one looks to be.

Now the swarms up toward Mirror Plateau & the Mushpots...closer to the NE Rim...hhhmmm...kinda running away from that highlighted fault...for now huh?
