Abstract:

Bollettino Sismico Italiano, II quadrimestre 2016, version 1.0 contains 4332 earthquake locations in the Italian region in the time frame between 01-05-2016 and 31-08-2016, locations refer to earthquakes located by INGV. We exclude from this count the earthquakes of the central Italy sequence started on August 24th and not jet revised from the Italian seismic bulletin. BSI will make a special report on the sequence in 2017. The personnel on duty in the seismic survey room localized in the sequence more than 3000 events (2635 with magnitude M>=1.5, 60 with magnitude M>=3.5). The revised events include earthquakes with magnitude greater than 1.5 (1416); to locate the earthquakes we used 421 stations which contributed to the locations with 17978 P phases and 12725 S phases. Data have been recorded by the National Seismic Network, operated by Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV) and regional and international networks operated by several providers. The Bollettino Sismico Italiano is available in Quakeml format and is described on a 4 months basis by a pdf document, but is also available in the ISIDe data-base for the period 1985-today. Both Quakeml files and pdf document are available at CNT webpage (http://cnt.rm.ingv.it/bsi).
