1911年2月1日福建德化44/3级地震的考证及同年2月6日江西九江5级地震的质疑

摘要

Through the analysis and research on relevant data, we conclude that on February 1, 1911, in Dehua county, a destructive earthquake of magnitude 4j with epicentral intensity VI occurred. We argue that diernseismic event that was reported on the third page of the TIME on February 27, 1911 may refer to the earthquake occurred in Dehua county, Fujian province, not in Jiujiang, Jiangxi province. The reported magnitude (A/5) of earthquake on February 6,1911 in Jiangxi is somewhat problematic based on our results in this paper.%通过对有关资料的分析和考证,认为1911年2月1日福建德化县城关发生了一次破坏性地震,震中烈度Ⅵ度,震级44/3.同时分析了《时报》宣统三年正月二十九日第3页刊载的地震事件可能是指福建省德化县城关地震,而不是江西省九江发生的地震事件,因此对同年2月6日江西九江5级地震存疑.
