Description:

Key Features * Historical seisograms are extremely important in establishing a long-term database and in supplementing more recent information obtained by global seismic networks; The papers presented here address awide range of historical earthquake research and discuss earthquake data from around the world, which has until now remained largely inaccessible; Topics include: * importance of historical seismograms for geophysical research * historical seismograms and interpretation of strong earthquakes * application of modern techniques to analysis of historical earthquakes
