On the Sunday afternoon and evening prior the OBS workshop (October 20) starting at 2:00 PM there will be a half-day mini-workshop on the ocean bottom seismometer portion of the Cascadia Initiative (http://http://cascadia.uoregon.edu/CIET/). The objectives of this meeting will be to (1) update the community on the status of the deployments, (2) discuss the data quality, (3) provide a forum for short presentations on the initial results and plans for data analysis, and (4) discuss the motivation and priorities for the fourth year of the deployments. Participants in the OBS Workshop who are interested in the Cascadia Initiative experiment are encouraged to attend.
