BBEB - Bay Bridge Pier 23, Oakland, CA, USA
We operate broadband and borehole stations under the network code BK. The Berkeley Digital Seismic Network (BDSN) is a regional network of very broadband and strong motion seismic stations designed to monitor regional seismic activity as well as provide high quality data. The Berkeley borehole stations have borehole geophones or other seismic sensors and may have other geophysical instrumentation.

Geology
Alluvium, playa, and terrace deposits
Borehole Conditions
The borehole is drilled to a depth of 183 meters and the sensor package is located at the bottom of the hole. Telemetry to the BSL is over a radio connection to McCone Hall, which is prone to fades.Table of Seismic Instrumentation
