| Summary | Earthquake epicentres from global, national, regional, local catalogues, and other source material compared and compiled. Data spans an interval from 1534 to 1985. Only data exceeding magnitude-completeness threshold for each region and time period were plotted. Symbols and colours (used in plotting) reveal details of the seismotectonic fabric of North America yet preserve a perspective of historical earthquake occurrence. |
| General note | Depths shown by contours. |
| General note | Shows data spanning an interval from 1534-1985. |
| General note | "Base from U.S. Geological Survey Transverse Mercator projection, central meridian 100 degrees west." |
