Microseismicity earthquake catalog, Endeavour Segment, Juan de Fuca ridge, 1995-2023
This microseismicity catalog is derived from three separate local ocean-bottom seismometer networks on the Endeavour Segment of the Juan de Fuca ridge. The earthquake locations in this catalog from the first network, deployed from June-August 1995, are relocations of the Wilcock (2002, doi:10.1029/2001JB000505) earthquake catalog (doi:10.1594/IEDA/306478). Earthquake locations from the second network, deployed from August 2003-October 2006, are relocations of the Weekly et al. (2013, doi:10.1002/ggge.20105) earthquake catalog (doi:10.1594/IEDA/321736). The third network is part of the Ocean Networks Canada NEPTUNE cabled observatory. We include newly-published earthquake locations for this network for August 2016-February 2021 as JdF_Endeavour_earthquake_catalog_v1.txt. The data file is in ASCII text format and the header block describes the content. Not all earthquakes have an estimated moment due to selection criteria. Details of the methods used to locate earthquakes from all three deployments may be found in Krauss et al. (2023, doi:10.1029/2022JB025662). An updated datafile, which includes an extended earthquake catalog from the Ocean Networks Canada NEPTUNE cabled observatory (network code NV) covering August 2016-December 2023, is available as JdF_Endeavour_earthquake_catalog_v2.txt. This version 2 file does not contain earthquakes from 1995 or from 2003-2006. Earthquake moments do not have station corrections applied as in Krauss et al. (2023, doi:10.1029/2022JB025662), but are simply the median of all moment estimates between stations. The data set was generated as part of the project titled "Microearthquakes on the Endeavour Segment, Juan de Fuca Ridge: A Near Real Time Earthquake Catalog for the ONC Cabled Observatory and a Reanalysis of Historical Data". Funding was provided by NSF grant OCE-1833419.
