INGV Broad Band Ocean Bottom Seismometers deployed in the Ionian Sea
In May 2007, within the monitoring activities carried out in cooperation with the Italian National Civil Protection Department (DPC) and European NERIES project (activity NA6), INGV has deployed three Broad Band Ocean Bottom Seismometers in the southern Ionian Sea at 3500/4000 meters of depth. The O...
