# Conterminous U.S. Seismicity Catalogs
For each update of the conterminous U.S. (CONUS) National Seismic Hazard Model (NSHM),
seismicity catalogs (full and declustered) are developed as input to the smoothed
seismicity model. Catalogs are developed separately for the central and eastern U.S.
(CEUS) and western U.S. (WUS) due to different input catalogs as well as magnitude
conversions.
Development of the seismicity catalogs include:
- reformatting and combining pre-existing input catalogs,
- deleting duplicates, explosions, and mining-related events,
- flagging induced events in the CEUS, and
- delivering a final uniform moment magnitude catalog for further processing
(i.e., declustering).
[Mueller (2019)][1] outlines the full set of catalog processing steps in further detail.

# Conterminous U.S. CEUS Full Seismicity Catalog
The full catalog for the central and eastern U.S. (CEUS) can be found in file emm_pn.c2
(file emm_pn.c2.pdf is a plot of this catalog file; blue boxes are induced seismicity zones
where induced seismicity is removed from the catalog). A description of each column in file
emm_pn.c2 is listed below:
Column 1: Mw (nonspecific momement magnitude)
Column 2: Longitude (degree east)
Column 3: Latitude (degree north)
Column 4: Depth (km)
Column 5: Year
Column 6: Month
Column 7: Day
Column 8: Hour
Column 9: Minute
Column 10: Second
Column 11: Sigma_M (Magnitude uncertainity/standard deviation of the magnitude error)
Column 12: Mwe (expcected value of Mw)
Column 13: N* (counting factor)
Column 14: Comment field
File in_ce1.geojson is the polygon that defines the collection region of input catalogs
and file in_ce2.geojson is the polygon that defines the final region of the full CEUS
catalog.
