BRAnsfield VOlcano SEISmology
BRAVOSEIS is a scientific project that involves international researches with different profiles and specializations. Their fields are Volcano Seismology, Marine Seismology, Volcanology or Geophysics. It is necessary to highlight that most of the researchers have a strong background in geophysical research of the Antarctic region. The project has prompted the collaboration of researchers from centers ...
The analysis of volcano seismicity is an important tool to improve the knowledge about volcano geodynamics. This kind of seismicity, generally, is related to the activity that is happening inside the volcanic edifice and it allows us to learn about the internal processes that are occurring there. Because of that, it has become necessary to ...
During this season we are going to carry out the BRAVOSEIS final stage. We are going to collect all seismic data stored in the land stations deployed during the 2017-2018 and 2018-2019 surveys and finally, we are going to proceed to uninstall them. The final instrumentation deployed in the previous survey were: • 15 land ...
The BRAVOSEIS project is going to use instrumentation that will be installed on land and sea for one or two years. Ocean-Bottom Seismometer, OBS The OBS stations comes from different sources. Twelve of them will be broadband OBS stations equiped with a Trillium compact seismometer, a HighTechInc HTI-04-PCA/ULF hydrophone and a 32 bits K.U.M. datalogger. These ...

Plate tectonics is a theory intended to explain the movements of the structures in which the Earth’s crust is divided. The comprehension of this theory is essential to be able to know how our planet works. The knowledge about the Earth would allow us to understand other rocky planets in a more accurate way. The ...

One of the most endearing initiatives of the Army during the Antarctic Campaigns is the sponsorship of penguins. With these campaigns, the commitment to the care of the environment is pursued, thus allowing the penguin to be sponsored to survive and care for the chicks that are born in the Antarctic continent. Likewise, this sponsorship …
We are coming in the last stage of Bravoseis project that will start at firsts Febrary when the Spanish polar research vessel BIO Hespérides board us at the Ushuaia (land of fire) port. The vessel has planned to sail towards South Shetland Islands on Febrary 8. We will be 21 people between researchers and students …
Once time again, the Geophysical Andaluz Institute of Research of University of Granada carry out the volcanic surveillance of Decepcion Island located in South Shetlands Islands (Antarctica) during XXXIII Spanish Antarctic Campaign. In this time, we celebrate 25 years of volcano monitoring since 1994 austral summer. This campaign started in December 12 when the Spanish …
The BRAVOSEIS team is already working on the revision of the equipment that will be installed in this season. The land stations are in perfect condition and ready to embark for the Bransfield Strait. There, the companions will install the in different points of the South Shetland archipelago, on places such as Penguin, Bridgeman or …
