Interesting. I would also like to know more about it.
Will check if I find something.
Here you can see the North Sea seismicity map:

What are they trying to say, that these are volcanic tremors or what?
Big Isle continues to shake, rattle and roll
Advertiser Staff
You probably didn't feel either of them, but there already have been at least two minor earthquakes on the Big Island today.
One occurred at 4:18 a.m. and was assigned a magnitude of 1.7 by the United States Geological Survey. It was centered about 3 miles west-southwest of
Kailua, Kona.
An earlier quake, with a magnitude of 2.2, occurred at 1:45 a.m. about 7 miles south-southeast of Volcano.
Including today's pipsqueak quakes, a total of 17 temblors, with magnitudes ranging from 1.7 to 2.9, have rolled through or under the Big Island this
past week, most of them unnoticed by people

Well this is from the Volcano Hazards Program of the USGS:
 Kilauea Daily Update issued Jan 27, 2007 06:58 HST
Volcanic-Alert Level WATCH - Aviation Color Code ORANGE
Source
 Tremor levels remain at low levels. A few, small earthquakes were recorded beneath Kilauea south flank. A few deep earthquakes were recorded under
the lower southwest rift zone.
Hawaii volcano observatory
Considering that Kilauea is almost constantly erupting, I would say it is volcanic tremor.
This is the recorded seismic trace from close to Volcano (Edit, it hasn't been updated since the 22nd):

Just out of curiosity,
What exactly is the point of this thread? I feel like I`m missing something. Is this a tie in to a research project of some kind? Are you trying to
establish some kind of a background for forecasting/predicting future quakes?

It's quite interesting really, to know where there have been quakes, and so on, and to see where there have been unusual ones in terms of size and
location.
Also, from quakes you can see where there is particular activity in the earth's plates.
And could you not make similar points against the other Earth watch threads?
Other than that, this was done in 2004, 2005,2006, so why not this year as well?

Don`t get me wrong, it`s not meant as a "point against". I live in a pretty heavy earthquake zone - do a search on Kushiro, Hokkaido quakes for the
last 5 years, and you`ll see just how interested I am in this stuff  .
Just wondering if there was anything to it beyond a listing.

Well I do make occasional comments if I see something interesting, as do others on occasion. Other than that it is just a list, but I he it will be
useful to some.
I had wondered, as you come from an earthquake prone area why you were asking.

This is quite interesting, two quakes on the Juan de Fuca plate, within about 20 minutes of each other, both with a depth of 10km:
