Caltech Seismological Laboratory
The Caltech Seismological Laboratory is a research facility at the California Institute of Technology that studies earthquakes and Earth's interior. They use sensitive instruments called seismometers to detect and analyze seismic waves caused by earthquakes and other geological events. Their work helps understand how earthquakes occur, how they affect different regions, and improves early warning systems. This research enhances our knowledge of Earth's structure and aids in developing safer building practices and disaster preparedness, ultimately contributing to public safety and scientific advancement in earth sciences.
