Introduction

Real time seismicity of the CE³RN area

In order to improve the monitoring of seismic activities in the border regions and to enhance the collaboration between countries and seismological institutions in Central Europe, the Environment Agency of the Slovenian Republic (ARSO), the Italian National Institute for Oceanography and Experimental Geophysics (OGS), the University of Trieste (UniTS) in Italy and the Austrian Central Institute for Meteorology and Geodynamics (ZAMG) established in 2001 the “South Eastern Alps Transfrontier Seismological Network”.

In May 2014 ARSO, OGS, UniTS and ZAMG agreed to formalize the “transfrontier” network and to expand their cooperation, including institutions in other countries.

The Croatian Seismological Survey (CSS) joined CE³RN in October 2014.

The Hungarian Kövesligethy Radó Seismological Observatory (KRSZO) of the Research Centre for Astronomy and Earth Sciences joined CE³RN in October 2015.

The Albanian Institute of Geosciences, Energy, Water and Environment (IGEWE) of the Polytechnic University of Tirana joined CE³RN in November 2015.

The Czech Institute of Physics of the Earth (IPE) of the Masaryk University in Brno joined CE³RN in November 2015.

The National Institute of Geophysics, Geodesy and Geography (NIGGG) of the Bulgarian Academy of Science in Sofia joined CE³RN in February 2016.

The Romanian National Institute for Earth Physics (NIEP) in Bucharest joined CE³RN in March 2016.

The Ukrainian Carpathian Branch of the Institute of Geophysics (IGPH) in Lviv joined CE³RN in June 2016.

The Earth Science Institute of the Slovak Academy of Sciences (ESI SAS) in Bratislava joined CE³RN in October 2016.

GeoRisk Ltd. (GeoRisk) in Budapest joined CE³RN in June 2020.

The Institute of Rock Structure and Mechanics (IRSM) of the Czech Academy of Sciences in Prague joined CE³RN in June 2020.

CE³RN Objectives

CE³RN Parties intend to formalize and possibly extend their ongoing cooperation in the field of seismological data acquisition, exchange and use for seismological and earthquake engineering and civil protection purposes.

The purpose of this cooperation is to:

1. Formally establish the cross-border network

2. Specify the rules of conduct in the network management, improvements, extensions and enlargements

3. Enhance seismological research in the region

4. Support civil protection activities

CE³RN Name

The Parties agree to formally establish the cross border seismological network and to name it “Central and Eastern Europe Earthquake Research Network”, (CE³RN or CE³R Network) in order to locate it geographically since cross-border networks can be established in other areas of the world.

Use of the CE³RN data and citations

The data will remain property of the contributing institutions that acquired them. The use of the CE³RN data is completely free among the Parties. Use of the data by someone outside the network and for commercial purposes is to be agreed on a case-by-case basis. The use of the data must be accompanied by an acknowledgement to the CE³RN.
