NPR/KVCR - On July 6, just a day after the 7.1 earthquake in Ridgecrest, Ghosh drove out to the city to install 25 seismometers in the ground.
Seismometers are instruments that measure vibrations in the ground and record them into a data log that can be used to analyze earthquakes.
Ghosh will use this data to map the structure of the still-unnamed fault in three dimensions.
He’ll also use it to answer some fundamental questions.
