The Seismicity of Egypt, Arabia and the Red Sea: A Historical Review Hardcover - 1995

by N. N. Ambraseys; C. P. Melville; R. D. Adams


From the publisher

A study of historical sources and a review of the instrumental data of this century have led to this catalogue of earthquakes. Egypt, Arabia, the Red Sea region and the surrounding areas of Libya, Sudan and Ethiopia are studied from the earliest times to the present day. Each earthquake is described from the available data, and is analyzed in a geographical and historical context. The earthquake catalogue over time is analyzed and the range of sources and problems associated with the scrutiny of historical sources is discussed. The information is then placed in a geophysical framework.

First line

Our investigation is concerned with a large, irregular area defined at its greatest extent by the co-ordinates 0-34 N latitude 10-60 E longitude (see Figure 1.1).
