Description

Seafloor High-Resolution Tilt measurements are very precise measurements of seafloor tilt, measured in micro-radians. This high resolution enables the measurement of the "tilting" of the seafloor as it deforms in response to uplifting mantle at the summit of Axial Volcano. Y-tilt is the magnitude of tilt since the last re-leveling of the sensor and is output by the High-resolution Tiltmeter (LILY) on board the BOTPT instrument. Positive Y-tilt means the positive y-axis is in the direction of downward tilt.
