About: 1902 Turkestan earthquake

An Entity of Type: earthquake, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

The 1902 Turkestan earthquake (also known as the Artux/Artush and Kashgar earthquake) devastated Xinjiang, China, near the Kyrgyzstan border. It occurred on August 22, 1902, at about 8:00 or 9:00 am local time with an epicenter near the Tien Shan mountains. The thrust earthquake measured 7.7 on the moment magnitude scale (Mw ) and initiated at a depth of 18 km (11 mi). The Tien Shan mountains is situated in a zone of complex convergence caused by the Indian–Eurasian plate interaction. This zone is actively deforming—accommodated by active thrust faults responsible for seismic activity. The mainshock was preceded by an intense series of foreshocks in the years prior. Many aftershocks followed, several were larger than magnitude 6.0 and one measured magnitude 6.8–7.3. These aftershocks were

  • The 1902 Turkestan earthquake (also known as the Artux/Artush and Kashgar earthquake) devastated Xinjiang, China, near the Kyrgyzstan border. It occurred on August 22, 1902, at about 8:00 or 9:00 am local time with an epicenter near the Tien Shan mountains. The thrust earthquake measured 7.7 on the moment magnitude scale (Mw ) and initiated at a depth of 18 km (11 mi). The Tien Shan mountains is situated in a zone of complex convergence caused by the Indian–Eurasian plate interaction. This zone is actively deforming—accommodated by active thrust faults responsible for seismic activity. The mainshock was preceded by an intense series of foreshocks in the years prior. Many aftershocks followed, several were larger than magnitude 6.0 and one measured magnitude 6.8–7.3. These aftershocks were recorded for three years. Additional shocks were recorded over a decade after the mainshock. An estimated 5,650–10,000 people were killed in the mainshock. Widespread destruction occurred—at least 30,000 homes were destroyed. Shaking was felt across an area of 927,000 km2 (358,000 sq mi). The effects of the earthquake led government officials to relieve victims of taxes and provide compensation. (en)
  • 1902年阿图什地震或阿图什大震（或称为喀什噶尔地震）是指于1902年8月22日11时发生在大清新疆阿图什阿湖一带的南侧喀拉翁库尔附近的强烈地震。根据《中国大地震研究》记载，此次地震的震级达MS 8¼级，最大烈度达到10（X）度。此次地震波及新疆多地及中亚部分地区，有感范围北至阿拉木图、伊宁，东至乌鲁木齐、库尔勒，南至塔什库尔干、和田，西至塔什干。阿图什地震至少造成1万余人死伤，超过3万间房屋倒塌。 (zh)
