摘要比较仪器定位和重新定位的震中(国际空间站、BCIS、美国地质勘探局、Nabavi(IGS)、Nowroozi等)伊朗地震的宏观震中震级最大,研究最充分的地震,揭示了在确定地震震中的缺陷。确定的误差似乎是随机的,而不是一致的,远远大于各机构或个人所引用的误差。这表明,地震构造图所揭示的地震活动性和构造结构的不相容性至少部分是由于定位误差。
Summary. Comparison of the instrumentally located and relocated epicentres (ISS, BCIS, USGS, Nabavi (IGS), Nowroozi, etc.) of Iranian earthquakes with the macroseismic epicentres of the largest magnitude and best studied earth- quakes, reveals deficiencies in the deteimination of the earthquake epicentres. The errors of determination appear to be random rather than consistent and are substantially larger than those quoted by the various agencies or individuals. This suggests that the incompatibility of seismicity and tectonic structures revealed by seismotectonic maps is at least partly due to location errors.
