How to best design and improve a microseism monitoring network in an urban environment?

Through an optimization program, Keil et al. find the optimal number and distribution of seismic stations for an urban area with heterogeneous noise conditions:

Alexandre Plourde introduces new methods for accurately estimating earthquake rates, especially useful when there are variations in seismometer coverage over time and space, including an adjusted maximum likelihood estimator for b-value.

Evangelidis et al. image the western edge of the Aegean Shear Zone using the South Evia 2022-2023 Seismic Sequence.

They identify the activation of a NW-SE fault structure, emphasizing the urgency for better seismic network coverage in the region.
