Seismicity of the Bora - Tullu-Moye volcanic field, Ethiopia: 2016-2017 dataset (NERC grant NE/L013932/1)

This data set characterises the seismicity occurring within 30 km of the Bora - Tullu-Moye volcanic field between 2016 and 2017. It also provides a description of key geologic features in this region. See the README file for a full explanation of the data set. These data were originally published as supplementary material in g-cubed article: Seismicity of the Bora – Tullu-Moye Volcanic field 2016-2017: Greenfield et al (2018), https://doi.org/10.1029/2018GC007648

Statement: The non-linear earthquake location package, NonLinLoc, was used to estimate earthquake locations from seismic data recorded on Guralp instruments deployed near the Bora – Tullu-Moye volcanic field. Focal mechanism were calculated using MTfit - only the results for well constrained mechanisms are presented here
