High-resolution palynological analysis in Lake Sapanca as a tool to detect recent earthquakes on the North Anatolian Fault [PDF]
, 2009 High-resolution palynological analysis of a 38-cm-long core collected from Lake Sapanca, northwest Turkey, reveals large earthquakes that occurred during the second half of the 20th century along the North Anatolian Fault Zone. Four events have disturbed

The 12th century seismic paroxysmin the Middle East: a historical perspective
Annals of Geophysics, 2004 The Dead Sea Fault and its junction with the southern segment of the East Anatolian fault zone, despite their high tectonic activity have been relatively quiescent in the last two centuries.

Seismic history of the Maltese islands and considerations on seismic risk
Annals of Geophysics, 2007 A historical catalogue of felt earthquakes in the Maltese islands has been compiled dating back to 1530. Although no fatalities were officially recorded during this time as a direct consequence of earthquake effects, serious damage to buildings

Misdates in catalogs of Japanese historical earthquakes and associated materials [PDF]
, 2017 Dating of earthquakes is a basic practice in studies of historical earthquake. Incorrect dates of earthquakes sometimes occur because of (1) mistakes in the original material, (2) mistakes in compilation of material, such as historical records of local ...

The Mechanisms of Deep Earthquakes [PDF]
This dissertation uses a variety of seismological and mathematical tools to investigate the mechanisms of deep earthquakes, the properties of fault planes and rupture at high pressure within the Earth, and the local conditions where deep earthquakes ...

Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2017 ᅟ We show that the spatial heterogeneity in the coseismic displacement of large earthquakes likely reflects the spatial characteristics of the frictional properties and that it can be inferred from the stress drop of moderate-sized earthquakes.

Earthquakes and Tsunamis in Ancient Iberia: The Historical Sources
, 2022 According to recent Portuguese and Spanish seismic catalogues, a remarkable number of earthquakes and tsunamis were recorded in the Iberian Peninsula during Antiquity. They list earthquakes and tsunamis in 218–209 BC (Gulf of Cadiz); 60 BC (Galicia and Portugal); 365 AD (Southern Spain); and 382 AD (Cape St. Vincent, Portugal).
