Collaborative Research: DUSEL Experiment and Development Coordination
This project is coordinating the science plan for the proposed underground research laboratory at Homestake. The laboratory will be a neutrino observatory with low background radiation, but also house projects in engineering geosciences, including those examining rupture and permeability evolution in fractured rocks.
