Irish National Seismic Network
The Geophysics Section within DIAS operates and maintains the Irish National Seismic Network (INSN), since 2018 with support from the Geological Survey Ireland (GSI). The INSN has operated since 1978 and currently comprises six permanent seismic stations. Station DSB is operated in collaboration with GFZ in Germany and station VAL is operated in collaboration with Met Eireann and GFZ. Data are transmitted from the seismic stations in real-time to the INSN data centre located in 5 Merrion Square, Dublin 2 and to our international partners GFZ, the British Geological Survey (BGS), ORFEUS and IRIS.
For more information on the INSN please go to https://www.insn.ie.
For further information please contact: Dr Martin Möllhoff, Director of Seismic Networks, martin@dias.ie, tel. +353-1-6535147 ext. 218, www.dias.ie/martin

iCRAGorama's team has just set sail aboard the @ClimPoro scientific cruise! We'll be doing seismic surveys and outreach. Follow our work on the PORO-CLIM YouTube channel: youtube.com/channel/UCeC6T…. Back in IE in June! In the meantime: Next episode on 20th May! Retweeted by DIAS Geophysics
1/2 There was a slight change in the seismic tremor measurements at #Fagradalsfjall shortly before 4:30 am. Rhythm had been the same until then, approx. 10 min between magma jets. But this morning about half an hour passed between powerful magma jets. #eruption #Reykjanes Retweeted by DIAS Geophysics
