Abstract

This work describes the most important earthquakes (I > VII) that took place in the area close to the Vega Baja of the Segura River. From new works related to the seismicity of the area and considering the known historical documents, an individual analysis of each earthquake in order to assign the parameters of location more accurately is carried out. A new assessment of the points of macroseismic intensity, allowing in some earthquakes to determine its size, either in terms of moment magnitude or maximum intensity, is also conducted.
