Location:
MHDL is located in the Marin Headlands of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area and was installed under the auspices of the National Park Service. This site is known as SFMAR in the USGS Low Frequency Network.

Although the installation is not complete as far as the data acquisition using the Quanterra datalogger, the USGS satellite system is installed and operational.

Geology:
TBD

Vault/Borehole conditions:
The MiniPBO borehole was installed on 08/06/2002. The strainmeter was installed at 520.6 ft and the seismometer package at 489.2 ft depth. This figure shows the location of equipment in the borehole.

Operation Notes: (may not be current)
This section summarizes major changes in equipment or in instrumentation at MHDL.

Noise Characteristics:
No noise information for MHDL is available at this time.

Data Availability:
BDSN waveforms and associated metadata are available at the Northern California Earthquake Data Center (NCEDC).

Several tools provide access to SEED format data at the NCEDC, both in terms of querying the archives and allowing data requests.

Help on using these tools is available.
