Historical Earthquakes and the Methods Used
Abstract
Earthquake locations reflect seismicity of a certain region. Earthquake location is an important parameter that is used in seismic hazard and risk analysis studies. In order to define and verify earthquake locations multidiciplinary methods are applied. These are instrumental seismology, historical seismology and archaeoseismological methods. Instrumental seismological data are obtained by seismometers since 1900. Historical earthquake data are acquired from observations and records of witnesses, artifacts, geological observations, historical seismology, paleoseismology and archeoseismological studies. Historical earthquakes provide essential information in regions where fault locations are not defined very well. In this study, methods used in preparation of historical earthquake catalogs are reviewed.
