description | AlpArray is a large collaborative seismological project in Europe that
includes more than 50 research institutes and seismological observatories. At
the heart of the project is the collection of top-quality seismological data
from a dense network of broadband temporary seismic stations, in compliment
to the existing permanent networks, that ensures a homogeneous station
coverage of the greater Alpine region. This Alp Array Seismic Network (AASN)
began operation in January 2016 and will have a duration of at least 2 years.
In this work we report the Swiss contribution to the AASN, we concentrate on
the site selection process, our methods for stations installation, data
quality and data management. We deployed 27 temporary broadband stations
equipped with STS-2 and Trillium Compact 120 s sensors.
<br><br>
The deployment and maintenance of the temporary stations across 5 countries
is managed by ETH Zurich and it is the result of a fruitful collaboration
between five institutes in Europe. |
