CZORSZTYN: shallow water reservoir

Seismic activity linked to the impoundment of Czorsztyn artificial lake. The lake was created by backing up water by an earth dam of the hydropower plant Niedzica on Dunajec river in the south of Poland. Its filling ended in 1997. The reservoir of 234.5 million cubic meters capacity is shallow, on average between 20 to 50 m of the water column. Seismic activity began in 2011. Episode integrated into the framework of:

  • IS-EPOS project, Digital Research Space of Induced Seismicity for EPOS Purposes No. POIG.02.03.00-14-090/13

  • EPOS-IP project, European Plate Observing System Implementation Phase. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 676564
