A Seismological and Geophysical Database of Kos Island: 10 Years of Digital Records

A ten-year complete seismological database is evaluated in the present work. These data are provided for events with magnitude M<sub>L</sub> ≥ 1.0, which have occurred in Eastern Greece and, more specifically, in Kos Island. Several selection criteria are applied and, hence, a catalog of...

description A ten-year complete seismological database is evaluated in the present work. These data are provided for events with magnitude M<sub>L</sub> ≥ 1.0, which have occurred in Eastern Greece and, more specifically, in Kos Island. Several selection criteria are applied and, hence, a catalog of the seismological records is compiled. Detailed big data (seismological, tide gauge, geodetic stations, accelerometers, etc.) of this region are used and processed in this work. The database consists of approximately 35,000 three-component broadband seismograms from 1198 digitally recorded events. It covers the last ten years of measurements, including records from the 20 July 2017, M<sub>L</sub> 6.2, Kos Island, Greece event. The seismological communities can either use this database to conduct new research or improve already existing seismic hazard studies in the region.
