Gravity Picture Gallery
The following thumbnails are linked to much larger versions of the
images. Note that most large images are 1024x700 or larger!
Pictures
- Picture from the alluvial fan showing Dixie Valley, with the plant
(the smudge in the middle left).
- A gravity station, without GPS equipment. Note the custom weather
box to protect the meter.
- An example of a station along the steam pipelines. Stations are on
large cement footings, reducing vibration.
Picture of the setup for simultaneous GPS and gravity reading. Note
the CG-3M is completely inside, and center in, the GPS antenna tripod.
- Picture of Dixie Valley and the Senator Fumarole station (lower
center). Note the pond.
- The ingenious setup for continous kinematic surveys of the Dixie
Valley road network.
-
The Dixie Valley plant, after it suffered a "trip" offline
due to a problem in a condenser. The venting was automatically
initiated to allow a shutdown of the plant to fix the automatically
detected problem. The venting, while deafening and spectacular, is of
little danger to people.
-
Venting of geothermal wells due to a safety "trip" of the
Dixie Valley plant.

Another venting well
