Seismic Catalog for Corbetti Volcano, Ethiopia (NERC grant NE/L013932/1)

This dataset contains the locations and other pertinent information for 122 well-constrained seismic events that occurred on or near Corbetti between February 2016 and September 2017. These locations were derived from data collected on 37 broadband seismometers deployed as part of the RiftVolc project. The data were originally published in Lavayssière, A., et al. "Local seismicity near the actively deforming Corbetti volcano in the Main Ethiopian Rift." Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research (2019). https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jvolgeores.2019.06.008

Statement

Earthquakes were detected from the raw waveform data using the Coalescence Microseismic Mapping technique. Phase picks with high signal-to-noise ratio derived from this auto-detection stage were then manually refined to improve accuracy. Earthquake locations were derived from these phase picks using the program NonLinLoc which estimates the probability density function of the hypocentre.
