Modern analysis places its epicenter somewhere near central New Hampshire, and it probably measured between magnitude 6.5 and 7.0 on the Richter scale,〔http://marybarrettdyer.blogspot.ca/2011/09/great-new-england-quake-of-1638.html〕 making it the strongest earthquake on record in New Hampshire and one of the strongest in the region's history (the 1663 Charlevoix earthquake was probably stronger). ==See also== *1755 Cape Ann earthquake 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「1638 New Hampshire earthquake」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
