Earthquakes in Switzerland and surrounding regions during 2017 and 2018

Tobias Diehl et al.

Summary: This report summarizes the seismicity in Switzerland and surrounding regions in the years 2017 and 2018. The Swiss Seismological Service detected and located a total of 2,182 earthquakes during this period, with one of the strongest events being the Urnerboden earthquake.

Improving Absolute Hypocenter Accuracy With 3D Pg and Sg Body-Wave Inversion Procedures and Application to Earthquakes in the Central Alps Region

Tobias Diehl et al.

Summary: Accurate hypocenter location is essential for high-resolution seismotectonic analysis, and this study demonstrates the use of three-dimensional velocity models and dynamic phase selection to achieve sub-kilometer accuracy in earthquake locations in Switzerland. The relocation procedure reveals previously unrecognized seismogenic structures and provides important insights for further research on tectonic seismic activity in the Central Alps.
