This seismic experiment will investigate the structure of the crust beneath Northeastern Oregon and southeastern Washington. Previous work in the region, Hales et al. (2005) and Darold and Humphreys (2013) identified a unique style of crustal deformation - unseen elsewhere in the Pacific Northwest. It is the goal of this study to better resolve the spatial and temporal scales involved in this deformation as it is likely linked to tectonic events in the inland northwest throughout the past 15 million years.
