A team of the University of Vienna deployed a total of 140 seismic nodes along a 30 km passive seismic profile stretching from Bad Vöslau to Mattersburg.
The scientists use the seismic noise of the Earth to image the structure of the Vienna Basin, reaching depths of up to 4 km.

In May, GO-Forward members visited the second site for characterizing fractured geothermal systems. This time, the team visited Cornwall, England, for studying one of the UK's most promising fracture-based geothermal systems.
In addition to geological field work (with exceptionally great weather for Cornwall ) visits of the projects United Downs and Eden were on the agenda of the group led by colleagues of the British Geological Survey.

In early February, GO-Forward members explored the stunning Island of Elba, Italy, to gather data on fractures from its fossil geothermal system, a valuable analogue for the Larderello geothermal system. This data will aid in improving fracture forward modelling methods developed in GO-Forward.

The GO-Forward project partners met at the Fraunhofer ENIQ in Berlin to set things in motion and start off this great project.
