SEISMOLOGICAL WORKSHOP “MANAGING WAVEFORM DATA AND RELATED METADATA FOR SEISMIC NETWORKS” August 13-19,2010 Foz do Iguaçu Brazil
ECUADOR: Network report Aguilar, Jorge Ruiz, Mario Segovia, Mónica
Seismic activity in Ecuador and its current monitoring • Maximum Intensities map • Instrumental seismicity • Quaternary faults • Seismic networks: • Current network • Future network
Seismic Sources: -Subduction (4 events M > 7.7 since 1906) -Quaternary Faults (Mmax 7.4) -Volcanoes
Seismicity 1990 – present: 4 events M>6 16 events M>5 ~ 200 M>4 / year
Current Ecuadorian Seismic Network (RENSIG): • 18 broand band (Guralp 40T, 6T, Smart 24R) • 56 short period (L4C) • 15 accelerographs (Guralp 5T)
Current networks: • 18 broad band (Guralp 40T, 6T, Smart 24R) • 56 short period (L4C) • 15 accelerographs (Guralp 5T) • Future networks: • 84 broad band (Guralp 40T, 6T, Smart 24R) • 128 accelerographs (Guralp 5T) • Mobile network • - 24 broad band stations
Data Transmission • 12 VSAT at peripheral stations • Fiber networks using Transelectric net • Microwave back-bone • Digital radio links
Data Policy • Open access to peripheral station waveforms • Real-time Data Exchange with regional networks • Access by request to institutions and scientists • Hypocenter catalogues available on website
