Offshore seismic hazard models and maps for the UK Exclusive Economic Zone
A new, robust seismic hazard model and seismic hazard maps for the UK offshore Exclusive Economic Zone using the latest available data and recent advances in seismic hazard methodology and a Monte Carlo-based approach for probabilistic seismic hazard analysis. These are intended to update the current maps for UK waters published in 2002. We developed a comprehensive catalogue of earthquake activity across the region by combining existing earthquake catalogues and data from regional and local mon
