Description
Summary:Recent years have shown an increased interest in Polar research and in particular in understanding tectonics and seismic hazard in the Arctic. To understand the seismic activity in the European Arctic, the seismic bulletins should be as complete as possible. We present a new seismic event bulletin for the European Arctic (70° – 90° N, -15° – 75° E), for the 24-year long period 1990 – 2013. The poster will show in detail the merging of the different sources taken in account for the compilation, the homogenization of the data and the relocation of the seismic events. With respect to the ISC bulletin for this region, the new bulletin contains 5,932 new seismic events and 54,630 new seismic onset readings from stations mostly located at regional distances. The gains are distributed over the entire study region, with the most significant contributions across the Svalbard Archipelago, along the Knipovich and northern Mohns Ridges, as well as northern Fennoscandia. : Norwegian Research Council Grant 233973/H30 : Russian Foundation for Basic Research Grant 14-05-93080 : Russian Foundation for Basic Research Grant 18-05-70018 : https://doi.org/10.31905/TYLLQY8T : poster
