I have come across a great source for Technical White Papers and want to share it with those that may not be familiar with it or those that may want
to continue their education in this area.
The SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System
Quoting the site "The SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS) is a Digital Library portal for researchers in Astronomy and Physics, operated by the
Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) under a NASA grant. The ADS maintains three bibliographic databases containing more than 7.4 million
records: Astronomy and Astrophysics, Physics, and arXiv e-prints. The main body of data in the ADS consists of bibliographic records, which are
searchable through highly customizable query forms, and full-text scans of much of the astronomical literature which can be browsed or searched via
our full-text search interface. Integrated in its databases, the ADS provides access and pointers to a wealth of external resources, including
electronic articles, data catalogs and archives. We currently have links to over 8.1 million records maintained by our collaborators."
In order to get more than just abstracts of articles you will need to create an account which is relatively easy to do. Click on the "Sign On: link
in the upper right corner of the page, on the next page, click on the "Account Setup" link in the ifrst sentence, it will ask for an email address
which you will use as your account name.
Once you have everything set up, type "Yellowstone" into the Search area and this will bring up a list of 200 abstracts and show a total of 874
documents available, some of the more recent papers are located down around document 98 with interesting titles like...

This probably does not need to be said especially with the links to the add-ons for Firefox but I really want to give a shout out to Mozilla Team for
being the first to come up with tabbed browsing via the Mainstream Firefox Browser (let's not get technical about the original Mozilla Browser hehe)
they have definately made my life much easier these past few days.
Keep up the great work Mozilla Team!
Firefox 3
Namaste,
Maeve

Awesome, thank you. Could someone also provide a little synopsis of the last week? How it was figured out, what's happening, what could happen? I
know it's all in those links but it would save a lot of people a lot of time.
it started here on ats for me with this

This afternoon and evening there has been 14 quakes at the park. While this may somewhat normal, I dont understand as to why all of these quakes are
centered in Yellowstone Lake. Alot of red squares from USGS. Any seismic activity there raises red flags, but this seems to weird.
it was being watched and discussed here on ats before i saw any msm news outlets covering it.
here are the earthquakes that have happened in yellowstone in the last week
www.seis.utah.edu...
id give u a synopsis but there are many others who could do an better job then me. ive just been watchign all these guys do the work. good job
everyone who is giving so much time up for this 'event'.
peace

To those wondering about the forum post about the "son of a geologist" that was deleted and thus returned a 404 error. I happened to get a quick
glance at the source of the story and it was from a forum post that was over 4 years old.
It was bogus, that is why it was deleted.

Instead of having a thread that is hard to reference ("look at page 4"), I've setup a Wiki for this exact information.
It is user editable, so anyone can go in and add information as they see fit.

Not sure iof these are of any interest ...
Seismic Evidence for Dilatational Source Deformation of the Yellowstone Accelerated Uplift Episode
This report was before the swarm
The dilatational deformations that we detected are very important for hazard mitigation efforts in volcanic fields because such deformations may
eventually cause hydrothermal explosions that are considered to be a serious volcanic hazard.
Hint: "select all" to see hidden letters, whatever they are ...?
2008 Fall Meeting
Seismic stations by name or codename? The bottom list has some interesting names
Data at IRIS DMC
Quakes in other locations have an effect on Yellowstone
Study by Robert Smith - QUAKE IN ALASKA CHANGED YELLOWSTONE GEYSERS From 2,000 Miles away.
A powerful earthquake that rocked Alaska in 2002 not only triggered small earthquakes almost 2,000 miles away at Wyoming's Yellowstone National Park
- as was reported at the time - but also changed the timing and behavior of some of Yellowstone's geysers and hot springs, a new study says.
While other large quakes have been known to alter the activity of nearby geysers and hot springs, the Denali fault earthquake of Nov. 3, 2002, is the
first known to have changed the behavior of such hydrothermal features at great distances, according to Smith and his colleagues. They say the
magnitude-7.9 quake was one of the strongest of its type in North America in the past 150 years.
Scientists once believed that an earthquake at one location could not trigger earthquakes at distant sites. That belief was shattered in 1992 when the
magnitude-7.3 Landers earthquake in California's Mojave Desert triggered a swarm of quakes more than 800 miles away at Yellowstone, as well as other
temblors near Mammoth Lakes, Calif., and Yucca Mountain, Nev.

Here is a def. interesting link to an article posted by MischeviousElf on the "what's going on at yellowstone thread:
For all those interested in a very well respected and silenced by the USGS Geologist Jim Berkland discussing the recent swarm on the 6th Jan
09:
Here is the Coast to Coast 1 hour interview about the swarm at Yellowstone,
It is an MP3 Download format, and not uploaded by myself but by a C2C archivist, full commercials please do listen to them.

Installing GEE (Global Earthquake Explorer) in Ubuntu 8.04 (gnome 2.22.3 desktop)
Be sure you have sun-java6-jre package installed using the synaptics package manager (approx 30M)
Click on “Places”
Click on “Home”
Create a new folder called “gee”
Download tar.gz from www.seis.sc.edu...
Extract and put folders “bin” and “lib” in your newly created “gee” directory
Make a new text file called GEEstart in your home directory (the same directory you have your new gee folder in) and edit it as follows:
#!/bin/bash
cd gee/bin
export GEE_HOME=/home/lernmore/gee
./gee
(be sure and replace lernmore for your own name/account)
open a terminal, (Applications, Accessories, Terminal) type the following
chmod +X GEEstart
(that makes it executable)
Click on the new GEEstart file in your home directory and select Run
note: There may be an easier way to get it to run, but I couldn't get it to take editing profile or .profile. , and it was a no-go "out of the
box".
You get the idea...
