The earthquake had a moment magnitude of 6.1 and a maximum intensity of IV (''Largely observed''). The shock occurred at a plate boundary where a number of large, very large, and great earthquakes are known to have taken place as far back as the eighteenth-century. The event was captured by a network of strong motion instruments in Spain. ==Tectonic setting== On its west, south, and east sides the African Plate is surrounded by spreading centers, and on the north side, the plate forms a convergent boundary with the Eurasian Plate in the central and eastern Mediterranean Sea. At the extreme northwestern boundary of the plate lies the Azores Triple Junction, where the Mid-Atlantic Ridge meets the right-lateral strike-slip Azores–Gibraltar Transform Fault, which is an east–west trending structure that continues toward the Strait of Gibraltar as the Gloria Fault. 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「2007 Iberian Peninsula earthquake」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
