Global Earthquake Hazard Frequency and Distribution
Entry ID:
CIESIN_CHRR_NDH_EQUAKE_HFD
Summary
Abstract:
Global Earthquake Hazard Frequency and Distribution is a 2.5 minute grid utilizing Advanced National Seismic System (ANSS) Earthquake Catalog data of actual earthquake events exceeding 4.5 on the Richter scale during the time period 1976 through 2002. To produce the final output, the frequency of an earthquake hazard is calculated for each grid cell, and the resulting grid cells are then ...
 Purpose: To provide a means of assessing the relative distribution and frequency of global earthquake hazard.
