Paleoseismology 1


Paleoseismology 1 : A field of study based on geologic techniques developed in the 1980's to extend the historical record of earthquake activity on a specific fault system or areas exhibiting prehistoric liquefaction through trenching and age dating to chronicle either the periods of deformation of the rocks or liquefaction episodes in past earthquakes. The technique can extend the record back in time several thousand years, much longer than the record of instrumental seismicity
