One of the main objectives in real-time assessment of seismic hazard is the development of algorithms for rapid estimation of the seismic source parameters (fault planes solutions). The objective of this work is to test and implement new methodologies in the National Institute for Earth Physics (NIEP) for near real time estimation of fault planes solutions taking the advantage of the spatial density of the Seismic Network in seismically active zones ( 120 seismic stations used in real time) and the full range of t...

Earthquakes represent a real threat in Romania. They can cause important damages, loss of lives, socio-economic as well as cultural losses. The National Institute for Earth Physics (NIEP) is the only governmental organization responsible for monitoring the seismic activity on RomaniaпїЅs territory. NIEP provides different kind of information minutes to hours after the occurrence of a significant earthquake in Romania: near realtime information (location, depth and magnitude), ground shaking parameters and maps wit...
