At an archaeological site at Crow Canyon, near Cortez, Colorado, a team of archaeologists, supported by a PBS film crew, were using ground penetrating radar, magnetometry, and resistivity geophysical methods to try to image the subsurface of the Basketmaker III community. They also used airborne LIDAR to map out structure locations, drainage and irrigation features and even old paths. [Source: The Cortez Journal. Image: Cortez Journal]

Comments Off on UW to develop specifications for large ocean observatory off coast of Washington
The University of Washington has been allocated $2.2 million for a planning phase to develop detailed engineering specifications for a cabled underwater research facility to be built off the coast of Washington and Oregon, and associated with the Juan de Fuca tectonic plate. The facility will extend continuous high-bandwidth (tens of Gigabits/second) and power (tens of kilowatts) to a network of instruments widely distributed across, above and below the seafloor.
