In 2014, 169 local events have been detected by the Network and 14 Hungarian earthquakes were felt by the public. The focal parameters and phase readings of the local earthquakes are listed in Chapter 1 of this publication. The type of the events (earthquake or explosion) were determined based on the characteristics of the recordings and the data from the quarry managements. In Chapter 2 the focal mechanism of the year's strongest Hungarian earthquake (ML=4.2) is shown. In Chapter 3 the macroseismic data of the felt Hungarian earthquakes are displayed. In Chapter 4 the phase and polarity data of the regional and teleseismic events, earthquakes of unknown origin and known explosions recorded by the Hungarian National Seismological Network are reported. 7 1. Local earthquakes Seismological stations At the end of the year 2014 the Hungarian National Seismological Network (HNSN) operated by the MTA CSFK GGI K¨ovesligethy Rad´oSeismological Observatory consisted of 12 broadband stations (AMBH, BEHE, BSZH, BUD, EGYH, LTVH, MORH, MPLH, PSZ, SOP, TIH, TRPA) and one short period station (CSKK). During the year one new permanent broadband stations has been integrated into the HNSN. It was installed in western Hungary, in the village of Egyh´azaskesz}o(EGYH). Table 1.1 contains the station parameters of the Hungarian National Seismological Network. The position of the stations are shown in Fig. 1.1. The data coming from these stations have been collected and stored in the Observatory using the SeisComP3 software package (http://www.seiscomp3.org). The description of the stations whose data were used in the computations but are situated in the neighbour- ing countries can be found in the publications of the respective operating institutions (Zentralanstalt f¨ur Meteorologie und Geodynamik, Austria; Geofyzik´alni´ustav Akademie vˇed Cesk´erebubliky,ˇ Czech Republic; Urad za seizmologijo in geologijo - Agencija Republike Slovenije za okolje, Slovenia; Geofyzik´alny ´ustav - Slovensk´aakad´emiavied, Slovakia; Institutul National pentru Fizica Pamantului, Romania). Earthquake location In the case of the Hungarian seismological stations, the wave phases have been picked at the Observatory, while for the foreign stations the monthly phase data reports of the partner organizations have been used. In the year 2014, 169 earthquakes and explosions have been located by the Observatory in the area confined by the latitudes 45.5-49.0◦N and longitudes 16.0-23.0◦E (Table 1.2 and Fig. 1.2). The phase picking and magnitude determination was carried out using the Seismic Handler software package (Stammler, 1993). The hypocenter location was performed by the HYPO71PC computer program (Lee and Lahr, 1975). The location is based on the three-layered velocity model of M´onus (1995): Depth range (km) P-wave velocity (km/s) S-wave velocity (km/s) 0-20 5.60 3.15 20-31 6.57 3.69 31- 8.02 4.51 The focal parameters and the phase readings of the located events are given in a form which is based on the Seisan (Havskov and Ottemoller, 1999) bulletin format. The abbreviations used in the listings are: Hour: Origin time in UTC (hr. min. and sec.) Lat: Latitude of epicenter Lon: Longitude of epicenter Depth: Focal depth in kilometer Magnitude: The local magnitude value 9 CHAPTER 1. LOCAL EARTHQUAKES Rms: Root mean square value of travel time residuals Gap: Largest azimuthal separation in degrees between stations. Erh: Standard error of the epicenter. If Erh={, it means that Erh could not be reliably computed because of insufficient data. Erz: Standard error of the focal depth. If Erz={, it means that Erz could not be reliably computed because the focal depth is fixed or because of insufficient data. Locality: If the event occurred in Hungary, Locality is the name of the nearest settlement, otherwise the name of the country.
