INDIAN EARTHQUAKES & THE 9/56 YEAR CYCLE

Moon Sun Finance

Appendix for the paper 9/56 year Cycles: Earthquakes & Volcanoes.

Some 23 earthquakes were presented in the Earthquake History of India and How safe are we? (see Appendix 1), of which 10 took place preferentially in the 8 months ended August 30 of those years in the 9/56 year grid presented in Table A. The expected frequency was around 2.7. This grid was expanded to include 14 56 year sequences (see Table B), which contained 13 major earthquakes in the 12 months ended August 30 of those years in Table B (significant p < .01).

There was limited information for pre 1850 Indian quakes with some serious errors being apparent. The Calcutta earthquake of October 11, 1737 fell in the 9/56 year grid in Table A, but it is questionable how severe this event actually was. The claimed death toll of 300,000 compared with the estimated 20,000 people living in the city at the time.

Seasonality may show up in Table A with two earthquakes happening on January 10 and January 15 and two additional events taking place on March 29 and April 4.

On the right hand side of Table B, earthquakes all happened in the three months ended August 21 with an anomaly on October 2005.
