Hi Brian and Penny,
I read the article at your link to be ambiguous. It may be that the people being talked to put in only one station, but the University of Washington put in several. By the way, I read all the posts but have not responded to some of Brian's recent ones. Penny, post some of your Santa Barbara oil geology or whatever stories!. I'm going to submit an abstract to SEC in a bit, and will post it here then. It bear on a paper being published by others on giant tsunamis that were modeled for Ventura etc due to quakes on the Ventura-Pitas Point fault. It uses a completely wrong fault-fold model. Actually, it does not use a fold model at all and that is the problem. The paper will likely get some press.
from Brian:
"According to the following news article, they've put in only one temporary seismometer, which has only marginally helped in precisely locating the quakes."
