"Al sexto año del reinado de
Axayácatl tembló la Tierra...
Después de este espantoso
terremoto, el rey venció a los
de Malacatepéc y Coatepéc"
_Fray Juan de Torquemada
Video: Sur de México- Sismos, tectónica y red de alarmas sísmicas (en inglés)
In 1985, a Great magnitude 8.1 subduction-zone earthquake occurred beneath the coast of Michoacan Mexico. Despite the 350-km distance from the earthquake epicenter to Mexico City,most of the 9,500 fatalities occurred there. That earthquake prompted Mexico to develop an earthquake alert system for all of Southern Mexico.
This animation describes the tectonic and geologic process that affect the region, including Magnitude, Basin Amplification, Building Resonance.

Explorando el interior de la Tierra usando sismología (cartel en alta resolución)
On January 17, 1994 a magnitude 6.9 earthquake near Northridge, California released energy equivalent to almost 2 billion kilograms of high explosive [...] It also created seismic waves that ricocheted throughout Earth's interior and were recorded at geophysical observatories around the world. The paths of some of those seismic waves and the ground motion that they caused are shown in this poster. Seismologists use these recordings to explore the Earth's deep interior.
