Abstract
The Geological Survey of Namibia established a National Seismological Network in 2000 which has expanded to seven seismological stations to date, with a view to improve seismological records and ultimately generate a Seismic Hazard Map of the country. As a signatory of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test- Ban Treaty (CTBT), the government in cooperation with CTBTO established an International Monitoring Station (IMS) in Tsumeb which monitors nuclear explosions worldwide. Collaborative projects include researches in Geosciences and weather studies with AfricaArray, with the main objective of studying the crustal studies. Walvis Bay Ridge Passive Source and Active Seismic Experiments with German Research Centre for Geoscience (GFZ) wwith a view of understanding the roll of the plume-lithosphere interaction during break-up of the Southern Atlantic Ocean and lithospheric structure of the passive volcanic margin of Namibia. More recently, seismology in schools project in collaboration with the British Geological Survey has been started, with a primary object of encouraging learners to take science as career.
