Abstract

A short overview is presented of seismicity in Poland, based on historical data and, since the 1980s, instrumental records. As a level of seismicity is low, in most of the country no earthquakes have been recorded instrumentally, seismicity is extremely poorly recognized. There are areas known historically from the occurrence of earthquakes of Io = 6–7 but these are single events, never ever repeated there before and afterwards. This concerns mainly the Sudetic Foreland (Paleozoic Platform), the wide Teisseyre-Tornquist Zone and the Precambrian Platform. The most seismically active and the best recognized in Poland are Western Carpathians, along the Pieniny Klippen Belt, especially in the Orawa-Nowy Targ Basin, where continuing tectonic activity has been confirmed by carried out since August, 2008 seismic monitoring. A catalogue of earthquake recorded in Poland in the years 1496–2014, updated and supplemented by foreshocks and aftershocks, is presented.
