Progress
I have started this new article on-line. It usually takes a few days. --Zeizmic 17:00, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
Finalized it. I'm missing a reference to 'critical state', I may have to write one. --Zeizmic 21:51, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
North Anatolian earthquake sequence
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)
