Abstract:After the Tangshan earthquake(Ms=7.8, July 28, 1976) a series of earthquakes occured in the Ninghe region. It is called the Ninghe earthquake swarm. In the Ninghe earthquake swarm are found seven earthquakes whose waveforms are different from others in the region, but similar to each other. These earthquakes with similar waveforms are characterized significantly by the foreshock. Such earthquakes are regularly followed by moderate-strong earthquakes with magnitude Ms ≥ 5.5 about the same period in the Ninghe region. Based on the such foreshocks with similar the main waveforms, the main fracture plane in the Ninghe region has been investigated, and it may be the left-lateral nodal plane orientated NW.
