The seismic waveform dataset of the Sardinia Passive Array Experiment (SPAE)

The Sardinia Passive Array Experiment (SPAE) was carried out in central-northern Sardinia (Italy), between July 2014 and September 2016, with the main goal of acquiring new data for studies on the lithospheric structure of Mediterranean region and seismicity of the Sardinia-Corsica block. The array consisted of 8 three-component portable seismographs, deployed progressively through the observing period. The stations operated in continuous mode recording at 100 sps, providing more than 50 GB of digital waveforms for the analysis. This data article describes the main characteristics of the temporary network and the valuable content of the seismic dataset assembled. The SPAE waveform dataset and the station metadata are accessible at the European Integrated Data Archive (EIDA) repository.
