Update on the seismogenic potential of the Upper Rhine Graben southern region

Abstract M 6.5 ± 0.5 Basel earthquake in 1356. Current seismicity (M > 2.5 since 1960) is mostly diffuse and located within the graben. We build upon previous seismic hazard studies of the URG by exploring uncertainties in greater detail and revisiting a number of assumptions. We first take into account the limited evidence of neotectonic activity and then explore tectonic scenarios that have not been taken into account previously, exploring uncertainties for M max b M max M w M max M max M w M max is less than 7.6.
