About the collection

Earth, Planets and Space is calling for submissions to our Collection on New trends in data acquisition, analysis and interpretation of seismicity. In the last two decades, the number of high-quality seismic instruments installed worldwide has grown exponentially and likely will continue to grow in the coming decades, producing larger and larger earthquake datasets. This data explosion, combined with new data acquisition and analysis paradigms, is opening new research horizons in Seismology and related fields. Exploiting the massive amount of data is a challenge that can be overcome by adopting new approaches for seismic data analysis, which can lead to enhanced seismic catalogs. These catalogs can be used in conjunction with advanced statistical or physics- based methods to forecast seismicity or to correlate the seismic activity with other processes, including stress changes, migration of fluids in the crust and slow slip. This special issue aims to bring to light new methods for the analysis and quantitative interpretation of seismicity datasets collected across different scales and environments or using new seismic data acquisition technologies, such as fiber-optics-based sensors.

This Collection welcomes submission of Research Articles. 

Before submitting your manuscript, please ensure you have read our submission guidelines. Articles for this Collection should be submitted via our submission system. During the submission process, under the section additional information, you will be asked whether you are submitting to a Collection, please select "New trends in data acquisition, analysis and interpretation of seismicity" from the dropdown menu.

Articles will undergo the journal’s standard peer-review process and are subject to all of the journal’s standard policies. Articles will be added to the Collection as they are published.

The Editors have no competing interests with the submissions which they handle through the peer review process. The peer review of any submissions for which the Editors have competing interests is handled by another Editorial Board Member who has no competing interests.
