The New Madrid Seismic Zone (NMSZ) is a unique place in Global Seismology. It is an example of intraplate seismicity, away from all plate boundaries. In fact, it is the most active place in the United States east of the Rocky Mountains.

This site was created by Brianna Muhlenkamp for a University of Arizona, GEOS 477--Active Tectonics Final Project in the Spring of 2005.
