The Israeli National Data Center monitors and characterises the seismicity of the Eastern Mediterranean region as part of its mandate with the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test Ban Treaty. The seismic velocity model is one of the factors that affects most the location accuracy. Three-dimensional tomographic studies of the area have been conducted in the past, but are patchy with inhomogeneous...
The earthquake activity of central Himalayas is monitored continuously since 1994 by the national seismic network of Nepal (NSC) comprising 21 seismic stations. Most of the recorded seismicity nucleates along the downdip-end of the locked fault segments of the Main Himalayan Thrust fault, the shallow dipping mega-thrust between Indian plate and Tibetan Plateau. After the April 25, 2015, Gorkha...
Site-specific deterministic hazard assessment at respective locations of the north-eastern of Azerbaijan that provides estimates of amplification factor on local soil conditions was carried out. Topics of interest include moment magnitude, seismic energy, b-value, simulated earthquake scenario-based Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA), site effects, the rock site characterization and intensity....
The Canadian National Seismic Network (CNSN), covering one of the largest single-network areas worldwide, plays an important role in global nuclear explosion monitoring. As such, and in light of the recent CNSN refurbishment program, we present two national-scale models of local and regional velocity and regional frequency-dependent attenuation relations for 3-D crustal and upper mantle...
The Regional Seismic Travel Time (RSTT) tomography model has been developed to improve travel time predictions for regional phases (Pn, Sn, Pg, Lg) in order to increase seismic location accuracy, especially for explosion monitoring. The RSTT model is specifically designed to exploit regional phases for location, especially when combined with teleseismic arrivals. The latest RSTT model (version...
