Amatrice Sequence International (in agreement with the Network Name assigned in IRIS) (NERC grant NE/P016626/1)
The data collection consists of 25 3-component broadband seismic station at 100sps (approx. 45mb per station, per day) located in the epicentral area of the 26th August 2016, M=6.0 Amatrice earthquake. The sequence evolved with strong mainshocks for over 6 months reaching a maximum magnitude of M=6.4 that struck Norcia town on October 30th, 2016. In line with SEIS-UK guidelines data was archived with the IRIS data management facility (https://ds.iris.edu/ds/nodes/dmc/) under the FDSN network code YR and using the network name “Amatrice Sequence International”. The project has the digital identifier
