Abstract

According to the magnitude-frequency formula,we educed the computing formula for estimating the recurrence period of earthquake with different magnitude and the maximum magnitude of earthquake possibly occurred in the coming future in this paper.Furthermore,the maximum earthquake magnitude in the future and the medium-long term seismic trend in Shaanxi province are preliminarily studied by using the ample historical earthquake data.
