نبذة مختصرة : Local seismicity of the Hronov-Poříčí Fault Zone is studied using two-year continuous seismic data from four seismic stations in the area. Newly developed software for automatic seismic events detection is introduced - it is based on the method used at the Icelandic seismic network. Twelve major local earthquakes are detected, localized and their magnitudes are estimated. Simultaneously, groundwater levels are continuously monitored in three wells in the area. Multiple-filtering method, originally used for processing of broadband and dispersed seismic signals, is modified and used for the frequency-time analysis of the water level data. Dominant tidal influence on the groundwater level variations is shown. Theoretical tidal potential for all three well locations is computed. Groundwater data and tidal potential are bandpass filtered to focus on the semidiurnal periods. Mutual amplitude ratio and phase shift between both quantities are computed. Each of the three wells exhibits different pattern of the groundwater level variations with respect to tides. A distinct change in the phase shift is observed at the VS-3 well in the second half of 2009. In the same time span, increased seismic activity is also observed. However, other two wells do not exhibit any evidence of such phase shift. Detailed groundwater level data analysis does not prove any significant rises or drops of the groundwater levels in 28 day intervals around the detected local events. In contras t, unexplained groundwater level drop in the V-34 well is obser ved 18 hours before the teleseismic Tohoku earthquake, Japan, March 11, 2011, Mw = 9.0. ; Petr Kolínský, Jan Valenta and Renata Gaždová. ; Obsahuje bibliografické odkazy
