Abstract

This paper presents a record of information on the seismicity of the Sudan. In addition to events for which only felt information exists, there are a number of early teleseismic locations of earthquakes which have been reexamined using information from contemporary station bulletins. Most activity is close to the southern borders of Sudan, near the African rift system, but the northeast is affected by earthquakes in the Red Sea, and the central intraplate region has also experienced earthquakes capable of producing damage.
