Abstract

Three ocean-bottom seismographs (OBS) were deployed overnight at five different localities in shallow water between longitude 148 West and the Canadian border. The water depth ranged up to about 4m. The purpose of this work was to monitor reported low-frequency natural seismicity in areas of decaying permafrost.
