The Yilan-Yitong Fault Zone is the northern branch of the larger Tanlu Fault. The Tanlu Fault is a 3,600 km long continental strike-slip fault extending from southern China through the country's northeast, into Bohai Bay and Russia. The Yilan-Yitong Fault Zone is located north of Bohai Bay. It is considered a major seismic hazard in the region as it represents an active boundary between the tectonics of north Asia. A paleoearthquake identified through trenching studied may correspond to historical records of an earthquake affecting Ning'an in 1810.Yu Zhongyuan Zhang Peizhen Min Wei Wei Qinghai Liu Yugang Late Holocene slip rate and average recurrence interval of great earthquakes on the Shangzhi segment of the Yilan-Yitong Fault Zone, northeastern China: Constraints from paleo-earthquakes and historical written records: repeat times, slip rate, YYFZ Island Arc 2017 27 1 10.1111/iar.12231 References Category:February 1810 Category:Earthquakes in Korea Category:1810 in Asia Category:19th century in Korea Category:Natural disasters in North Korea Category:North Hamgyong Province Category:1810 earthquakes
