The Significant Earthquake Database is a global listing of over 5,700 earthquakes from 2150 BC to the present. A significant earthquake is classified as one that meets at least one of the following criteria: caused deaths, caused moderate damage (approximately $1 million or more), magnitude 7.5 or greater, Modified Mercalli Intensity (MMI) X or greater, or the earthquake generated a tsunami. The database provides information on the date and time of occurrence, latitude and longitude, focal depth, magnitude, maximum MMI intensity, and socio-economic data such as the total number of casualties, injuries, houses destroyed, and houses damaged, and $ dollage damage estimates. References, political geography, and additional comments are also provided for each earthquake. If the earthquake was associated with a tsunami or volcanic eruption, it is flagged and linked to the related tsunami event or significant volcanic eruption.</dc:description><dc:format>File</dc:format><dc:language>eng</dc:language><dc:publisher>Pennsylvania Spatial Data Access (PASDA)</dc:publisher><dc:rights>Public</dc:rights><dc:title>Historical Significant Earthquake Locations [Pennsylvania]</dc:title><dc:type>Datasets</dc:type><dc:coverage>Pennsylvania</dc:coverage></oai_dc:dc>
