Description
The goal of this experiment was to construct an east-west refraction profile across the S. Washington Cascade. The profile was not reversed. Sources were from daily blasts at a coal mine in Centralia, WA. There were 47 sites occupied, normally for one week periods. Data were combined with data from 15 permanent seismic stations of the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network.
