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 further information please contact: Dr Martin Möllhoff, Director of Seismic Networks, martin@dias.ie, tel. +353-1-6535147 ext. 218, www.dias.ie/martin

Seismic ground vibrations recorded at INSN station DSB in the Dublin mountains are much lower since stricter lockdown last weekend @DIAS_Dublin@GeolSurvIE@seismotom@Luke_Drury@MTsekhmistrenko. Vibration levels on weekdays now similar to average Saturdays.
A major new research project has just started here in DIAS!
The DIG project will see @DIAS_Dublin scientists and their collaborators exploring Ireland's potential for low-enthalpy geothermal energy. @GeolSurvIE@SEAI_ie

Today is International Day of Women and Girls in Science calling for full and equal access to, and participation in, science for women and girls throughout the world #WomenInScience Gender equality is a global priority for developing better solutions to global challenges 🌍 pic.twitter.com/76JiMqWrdF
Today, we're joining @UNESCO in celebrating all the amazing #WomenInScience who dared to discover!
Their achievements changed the world forever & blazed the trail for girls around the world to follow.
