Overview
Seismology has a long tradition at UC Berkeley, beginning
in 1887 with the installation of seismometers at the
Student Observatory and at Lick Observatory by Edward S. Holden,
professor of astronomy and President of the University. From
these two observatories, the seismic network at UC Berkeley
has grown over the last century to include nearly 50 sites
in California and southern Oregon. Today, the Berkeley
Seismological Laboratory is involved in a wide range of
geophysical monitoring and research.
