Recent Danish seismological projects involving neotectonic investigations and structural studies have determined the edge of the Baltic Shield underlying Denmark. The most active earthquake zones in Denmark are located in northwestern Jylland and adjoining offshore areas, and in the region around Kattegat, Oresund and north-east Sjaelland (Fig. 1). This pattern was originally recognised by Lehmann (1956) and has been confirmed by several later studies, e.g. Gregersen et al. (1998). Recent, more detailed investigations have documented that changes in the pattern of earthquake activity have occurred within a short time span. The most pronounced example of change ‐ possibly related to exploitation of hydrocarbons ‐ is an activity recorded in the Central Graben area of the North Sea that was first documented by Gregersen et al. (1998).
