The Cascadia Initiative is an ongoing experiment exploring the tectonic forces of the Cascadia subduction zone, and associated earthquakes and volcanism. Scientists from multiple disciplines have collaborated on this project which receives funding from the National Science Foundation. A special component of this scientific endeavor involves community outreach and education by engaging Community College and High School students with research based, real world, problem solving opportunities.

Ocean Bottom Seismometers (OBS's) here we come!
