Is the quiescence of major earthquakes ( M ≧ 7.5) Since 1952 in the Himalaya and northeast India real?

S. P. Satyabala, Harsh K. Gupta
Published: 01 December 1996
Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America (1996) 86 (6): 1983–1986.
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1785/BSSA0860061983
... major earthquakes ( M ≧ 7.5) during the period 1897 to 1952 and no major earthquakes after 1952. To investigate the possibility that this quiescence is an artifact of nonuniform magnitude scales over the period of study, we examined three global catalogs and found that there is indeed an absence...

Intensity data for the Mw 5.7 Prague earthquake and 1952 El Reno earthquake. Raw “Did You Feel It?” intensity data for the Prague earthquake (gray dots) are resampled to recreate sampling bias associated with traditional intensities (bin-averaged values shown; black squares). The resampled intensities correspond well to bin-averaged traditional intensity data for the 1952 earthquake. Note that data for distances above 500 km are more sparse and less reliable for both events. The black line shows predicted intensities for an M 5.7 earthquake from a central and eastern United States (CEUS) intensity prediction equation (Bakun and Hopper, 2004).
