  • The Ms 7.7 earthquake of Gujarat, India occured early in the morning of January 26, 2001. Subsequent of the earthquake, as a Seismologist at Korea Institute of Geoscience and Mineral Resources(KIGAM), I have been visited epicentral area here reporting the impressions and initial observations collected during the period of Feb. 07 to 13. The trace of surface faulting was not founded. However the mechanism of the earthquake suggests the indenting Indian plate to the Eurasian plate was the tectonic background of this earthquake. Large casualties compare with the magnitude and focal depth of the event, seems due to the poor construction of the typical ordinary Indian housing structure. The wall and roof of the house are very thick to avoid high temperature of the epicentral region.
