Calvert Coastal Observatory

Geohazards

The Geological Survey of Canada and Hakai operate a seismometer on Calvert Island. Real-time data helps pinpoint earthquake locations and understand the structure of the Explorer Microplate.

Our seismometer helps pinpoint seismic events in the region, such as massive landslide at Elliot Creek in the Bute Inlet fjord.
