Earthquake Catalogue
An earthquake catalogue forms a valuable input for seismic hazard assessment and microzonation studies. Critical structures such as nuclear power plants and dams, as well as siting of any new industry, require earthquake data that are accurate, homogeneous and as complete as possible. In this study an attempt is made to assess the seismicity of Bangladesh and adjoining region (20-280 north latitude and 86-950 east longitude) during the period 1865-1995 by reviewing instrumental data as well as macroseismic information retrieved from various sources.
1865-2003
Revision of Magnitudes
The idea of revising and unifying existing magnitudes is carried out. The main goal is to produce a file of reliable data that reflect, as homogeneously and completely as possible, the seismicity of the region. Calculation of surface wave magnitude: Ms= log(A/T)+1.66 log+3.3 Use of correlations: Surface-wave magnitudes are estimated where possible from semi-empirical relationships between Ms and Mb. Ms = a + b*Mb. Ms = 0.63+0.774*Mb - period 1978-1995 Ms = 1.27+0.68*Mb - period 1964-1977
Surface-wave magnitudes are also assessed by using the number of stations (NS) that reported it to the ISS or ISC. Ms = a + b* Log (NS) a =4.21, b=1.12 - period 1900-1963 a =3.21, b=0.72 - period 1964-1977 a =2.77, b=0.81 - period 1978-1995 Surface-wave magnitudes are also estimated where possible from semi-empirical relationships between Ms and Duration Magnitude Md. Ms = 0.57+1.057*Md - period 1993-1995
