Abstract

âº We investigated the regional variations of upper bound magnitude (Ï) and M100. âº There is a linear relation between Ï and Mmax estimated by Kijko-Sellevoll method. âº The largest Ï values found in Quetta, Pamir Himalaya and Kashmir-Himanchal Pradesh. âº The spatial mapping of Ï, M100 and Mmax can be used as hazard atlas.
