A Catalogue of Earthquakes in the Koyna-Warna Region, Western India (2005–2017)

The Koyna-Warna region of western India is one of the most prominent reservoir triggered seismicity (RTS) sites in the world. A catalogue of 957 earthquakes of M³2.0 which includes 24 earthquakes of M 4.0–5.1 from August 2005 to December 2017 is presented here. The magnitude for completeness is foun...

Zusammenfassung:The Koyna-Warna region of western India is one of the most prominent reservoir triggered seismicity (RTS) sites in the world. A catalogue of 957 earthquakes of M³2.0 which includes 24 earthquakes of M 4.0–5.1 from August 2005 to December 2017 is presented here. The magnitude for completeness is found to be 1.7 based on the Gutenberg-Richter earthquake frequency-magnitude relationship. The presented catalogue would be useful to Earth science community for undertaking earthquake related studies in the region.
