Task 3.1: European earthquake database (INGV, AUTH, NERC-BGS, GFZ, IST, KOERI, NIEP, NKUA, NORSAR/IGC, ROB, MSO, CRAAG)
SHEEC (SHARE European Earthquake Catalogue, Version 2.0) was released in August 2011 for internal SHARE use. The map below shows events of MW ≥ 4.0 for the entire region in the period 1000-2007 on top of the shallow area source model (red).
The SHEEC consists of two parts. The two parts can be accessed at http://www.emidius.eu/SHEEC:
2) SHEEC 1900-on, compiled using the methodology developed by GFZ for the compilation of the “Central,Northern and North Western European Catalogue” (CENEC; Grünthal et al. 2009). This part of the catalogue was entirely compiled by GFZ. The catalogue now covers the area ranging from Ireland to Western Turkey, 30° East. It is noted that the seismicity of Iceland, the Azores and North Africa is explicitly not included.
Historical earthquake data and information can be accessed at The Archive of Historical EArthquake Data (AHEAD, T <1900). The archive contains and makes available the results of historical earthquake investigation, formalised in terms of studies (papers, reports, macroseismic data points, etc).
