Description
| - The principal motivation to write this comment is a surface vertical displacement of 167 mm with a reboundof 55 mm at GPS site KOPA (latitude = 50.19700°N, longitude = 12.48473°E) in the West Bohemia earthquake swarm area (central Europe) in connection with the ML 3.8 earthquake swarm in 2008, which was reported by Schenk et al. [2012]. Such extraordinary amplitude greatly exceeds any other geodetic displacements ever observed in the region, and even within central Europe. In order to justify these GPS results, Schenk et al. [2012] present a complex crustal deformation model of the earthquake swarm area in West Bohemia consisting of several rotating crustal blocks, which are derived from hypocenter istributions. Besides, they present numerous, mostly vague arguments related to geomorphology, geochemistry, brittle tectonics, and fluid emanations to support their idea of rotating crustal blocks and invoke an impression of well-based multidisciplinary study. To briefly introduce the region concerned, we note that it is located in the western part of the Bohemian Massif. The region is intersected by a NEE-SWW trending neotectonic structure, the Eger rift (ER), and by the NNW-SSE striking Mariánské Lázně fault zone (MLFZ). The Tertiary Cheb (Eger) Basin is located at the crossing of ER and MLFZ. In terms of seismicity, the region belongs to the north-south trending Regensburg-Leipzig-Rostock seismogenic zone [Bankwitz et al., 2003]. Relatively frequent earthquake swarms [Fischer et al., 2010], the youngest Quaternary volcanoes including recently discovered maar [Mrlina et al., 2009], and also the occurrence of juvenile carbon dioxide waters [Bräuer et al., 2009], mineral springs, and mofettes prove that the region is geodynamically active. More than 90% of the seismic moment has been released in the Nový Kostel (NK) focal zone, as documented by Fischer et al. [2014], who also provide more details about the geodynamic setting of the studied area.
