Zusammenfassung: | On May 20th 2012, at 02:03:52 UTC, a ML 5.9 (Mw 6.0) earthquake struck northern Italy (http://cnt.rm.ingv.it/). The epicentre was localized at 44.89˚ N and 11.23˚ E, in an area among the cities of Ferrara, Modena and Mantova. The event occurred at a depth of about 6.3 km, and was characterized by a reverse focal mechanism (http://cnt.rm.ingv.it/tdmt.html/). From May 20th, thousand of earthquakes, the strongest of which with a ML 5.8 (May 29th, 07:00:03 UTC), occurred in the same area (http://iside.rm.ingv.it/).This note presents a new web site, www.mi.ingv.it/ISMD/ismd.html/ (Figure 1) that includes about 2000 three-component strong-motion recordings of the events with 4.0 ≤ ML ≤ 5.9 occurred in the central part of the Pianura Padana Emiliana (northern Italy) from May 20th to June 12th. The data come from all INGV strong-motion stations installed in northern Italy (i.e. strong-motion stations of the National Seismic Network, RSN [Amato and Mele 2008]; Strong-Motion Network of Northern Italy, RAIS, http://rais.mi.ingv.it/ [Augliera et al. 2011]) and selected with a minimum latitude of 43.5˚ N. The earthquake locations reported in the web site come from the National Earthquake Centre of INGV (http://cnt.rm.ingv.it/). |
