Of course, this often proves to be more of an anxiety than a reality, and most efforts, especially those employing multiyear installations, succeed in gathering valuable seismic data. One of the most gratifying examples of success is provided by the deployment of the Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology–National Science...
