Goals & Features |
|
| Seismological models of Earth crust and
upper mantle
structure are critical for many basic and advanced seismological tasks,
such as the calculation of earthquake source parameters (location,
magnitude, geometry), shake-maps, and the imaging of lithospheric
dynamic processes. The resolution, reliability and consistency of
seismic wave speed models control the accuracy of earthquake parameter
estimation, and thus greatly influence the quality of further
seismological studies. For the Euro-Mediterranean region no adequate,
coherent, seismological reference exists, but one is urgently needed to
improve European research and monitoring. The necessary data exist at
national data centers and geophysical institutes throughout the
EuroMed region. Our goal is to develop a commonly accepted European
Seismological Reference Model (ESRM) based on these data. |
