welcome. more now on monday's devastating earthquake, the biggest in the region since 1939. it's killed over 7,000 people. the border area between turkey and syria is one of the world's most seismically active regions. 0ur correspondent quentin sommerville has travelled to antakya, close to the border with syria, that's been hit by aftershocks. with pickaxe and hammer, determination and hope, they dig for lost relatives in antakya. this backbreaking work falls to these men. their city and country are overwhelmed, and the lives of those trapped in here depend on them. this was a sixth...

National Research Institute for Earth Science and Disaster Resilience, Tsukuba, Japan We analyzed strong-motion records at the ground and borehole in and around the Kanto Basin and the seafloor in the Japan Trench area from three nearby offshore earthquakes of similar magnitudes (Mw 5.8–5.9). The seafloor strong-motion records were obtained from S-net, which was established to enhance tsunami and earthquake early warnings after the 2011 great Tohoku-oki earthquake disaster. The borehole records were obtained from MeSO-net, a dense network of seismometers installed at a depth of 20 m in th...

>> there's actually a number of questions in terms of the ground motion that are radiated from faults. as they break to the surface. there's indications that the ground motions are lower. than they might be expected from ruptures that are buried. talking about the north ridge earthquake. there was a buried fault. it was very energetic. the magnitude was 6.7. it was incredibly strong shaking. this earthquake it's going to be interesting to see. it's a 7.1. the ground shaking in the preliminary indications for this magnitude the shaking maybe lower than is typical. i'll note that for the 6.4 yes...
