Monitoring seismic activity in diverse environments and scales poses different technical and scientific challenges. This presentation will highlight case studies illustrating seismic monitoring in varied contexts. Specifically, it will cover three case studies: the Irish National Seismic Network’s (INSN) national-level monitoring in Ireland, the Montserrat Volcano Observatory’s (MVO) surveillance of the Soufriere Hills Volcano, and recent work at the Dublin Institute for Advanced Studies (DIAS) to monitor microseismicity within an active mine. Each case study will detail key scientific findings, monitoring objectives, and associated challenges. Additionally, the talk will compare and contrast the approaches employed, highlighting both differences and similarities.
