| Summary: | Earthquakes are continuously monitored by a global network of several thousand seismic stations equipped with highly sensitive digital seismometers. The Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) takes part in it by operating five seismic stations in Denmark and 18 in Greenland, some of the latter in collaboration with international partners. There are two main ways of detecting earthquakes from digital recordings of seismometers: (1) by a manual review of the data by an expert in processing seismic earthquake signals and (2) by an automatic method that uses a computerised algorithm to analyse the recordings. |
