Belongs here: a discrete earthquake event, carrying a live in-discipline link to Seismology as its primary process even where a secondary oceanographic effect, such as a tsunami, is also attached. Does not belong here: a volcanic eruption, held under Volcanology, even where it also triggers seismic activity.Comments (0)Reader Challenges (0 open reader challenges)BrowseCompareSelect all 251556 Shaanxi EarthquakeSeismology1 link1700 Cascadia EarthquakeSeismology1 link1755 Lisbon EarthquakeSeismology2 links1811-1812 New Madrid EarthquakesSeismology2 links1906 San Francisco EarthquakeSeismology4 links1908 Messina EarthquakeSeismology1 link1923 Great Kanto EarthquakeSeismology1 link1950 Assam-Tibet EarthquakeSeismology1 link1960 Valdivia EarthquakeSeismology4 links1964 Alaska EarthquakeSeismology2 links1970 Ancash EarthquakeSeismology1 link1976 Tangshan EarthquakeSeismology1 link1985 Mexico City EarthquakeSeismology1 link1989 Loma Prieta EarthquakeSeismology1 link1995 Kobe EarthquakeSeismology1 link2001 Gujarat EarthquakeSeismology1 link2004 Indian Ocean Earthquake and TsunamiSeismology4 links2005 Kashmir EarthquakeSeismology1 link2008 Sichuan EarthquakeSeismology1 link2010 Haiti EarthquakeSeismology2 links2011 Tohoku Earthquake and TsunamiSeismology4 links2015 Nepal EarthquakeSeismology1 link2018 Sulawesi Earthquake and TsunamiSeismology3 linksEarthquakeSeismology7 linksSeismic SwarmSeismology1 linkComments (0)No comments yet.
