Axial Seamount Earthquake Catalog

by William Wilcock

and Maochuan Zhang

This simple web site provides access to a near-real time catalog of earthquake detections and HYPOINVERSE locations for the Ocean Observatories Initiative cabled observatory at Axial Seamount. The catalog is updated hourly and efforts are made to backfill locations from intervals when the high-sample-rate data are diverted by the Navy but later released. NOTE: There are some inconsistencies in the seismic moments which I am working to resolve (Already fixed!).

Catalog last updated at 23-Apr-2024 07:03:26 UTC (23-Apr-2024 00:03:26 Seattle) with locations up to 23-Apr-2024 07:00:00 UTC
