Progress

[edit]

I have started this new article on-line. It usually takes a few days. --Zeizmic 17:00, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Finalized it. I'm missing a reference to 'critical state', I may have to write one. --Zeizmic 21:51, 1 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

North Anatolian earthquake sequence

[edit]

The article refers to the sequence of earthquakes along the North Anatolian Fault from 1939 to 1999. The supporting reference refers to them as "earthquake stress triggering", but I don't think that's the same as remote triggering as (in my understanding) the characteristics of a remotely triggered earthquake are that they are distant from the original fault source (more than 2 fault lengths away) and occur during passage of the seismic waves of the triggering event (as described in the other two sources). I intend to remove the North Anatolian example and beef up the description of such events. Mikenorton (talk) 20:34, 29 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
