Seismogram from Ocean Bottom Seismometers (OBS)

Scientists use Ocean Bottom Seismometers (OBS) to measure vibrations in the seafloor, monitor earthquakes, and study the movement of Earth beneath the ocean. This helps researchers understand geological processes in ways that aren't visible from the surface. In this interface, anyone can look at the data through these seismic waveforms produced from different Earthquakes.
