Data for the Bottom Pressure Tilt (BOTPT) instrument is easily viewed through the OOI Data Portal. This image shows an example of pressure data averaged every 15 seconds as viewed through the quick look option on the Data Portal for the BOTPT  instrument at the Central Caldera Site. The large offset shown on April 24, resulted from a 2.4 m drop in the seafloor over an ~ 24 hour period as the volcano was erupting. Credit: OOI-NSF.
