Abstract
AbstractThis chapter deals with all the precious documented recently published and unpublished studies that address the seismic situation and earthquakes in the State of Kuwait. Kuwait is geographically and geologically situated in the northeastern part of the Arabian Peninsula. In addition to being close to the famous Zagros belt of earthquakes, the local seismic sources inside Kuwait make it always vulnerable to earthquakes. We will review the instrumental and historical seismic records and the Kuwait National Seismic Network, including Data acquisition, data analysis, and data analysis. This chapter will also highlight all the recent seismic studies conducted in the Kuwait region. The induced seismicity, the seismic sources affecting Kuwait, as well as determining the types of faults using focal mechanism technique, specifying the seismic crustal models and ground motion attenuation inside Kuwait are being reviewed.
