摘要根据新西兰地震的历史记录，计算了全国范围内修正Mercalli烈度VI、VII、VIII和IX的平均重现期。结果以等高线地图和19个城镇的表格形式呈现。这项工作试图记录自1840年以来发生的事情，但假设历史记录代表了活动的平均水平，其结果可能用于未来的规划。
Abstract From the historical record of New Zealand earthquakes, the mean return periods for Modified Mercalli intensities VI, VII, VIII, and IX throughout the country are calculated. Results are presented in the form of contour maps and also a tabulated list for 19 cities and towns. The work attempts to document what has happened since 1840 but, the results may be used for future planning, on the assumption that the historical record represents an average level of activity.
