Seismological Data

This catalog includes information on the basic source parameters (origin time, epicenter, focal depth, magnitude) of known earthquakes with magnitude greater than 4.5 for the period from 550 B.C. until the end of 2010, which occurred within the area 33.0^oN - 43.0^oN, 18.0^oE - 30.0^oE. The catalog is homogeneous with respect to the earthquake magnitude, i.e. all magnitudes are seismic moment magnitudes (either directly computed or appropriately converted from other magnitude scales). all data are complete for the following periods and magnitudes Μ>6.5 since 1901, Μ>5.2 since 1911, Μ>4.8 since 1950 and Μ>4.5 since 1964.
