Dense Array for Northern Anatolia (DANA) (NERC grant NE/I028017/1)

A seismic dataset of 70 temporary and 3 permanent seismic stations deployed from 05/2012 to 10/2013 in northern Turkey. Three-component seismic data were collected at each location. Stations were deployed across the North Anatolian Fracture Zone (NAFZ) in the region of the 1999 Izmit and Duzce earthquakes. The network covered a footprint of ~35 by 70 km with a nominal station spacing of 7 km. Continuous seismic data were collected to study the crustal structure of the NAFZ to better understand the structure and dynamics of the NAFZ and it seismic hazard for the region. Funding for the project was provided through NERC Standard grant NE/I028017/1 and 63 stations were provided by the GEF. Additional stations were provided by the Kandilli Observatory and Earthquake Research Institute. Seismic stations were a mixture of Guralp CMG-6TD and CMG-3T.

Statement: Seismic stations were deployed underground at depths of about 1m and the cavity filled in following Seis-UK procedures. Power was provided through battery and solar power. Digital data were collected using a sampling rate of 50Hz. Further information can be found in GEF report for loan 947 - http://gef.nerc.ac.uk/documents/report/947.
