Putting Down Roots in Earthquake Country: Your Handbook for Earthquakes in the Central United States
"This 2011 handbook provides information about the threat posed by earthquakes in the Central United States, particularly along the New Madrid seismic zone, and explains how you can prepare for, survive, and recover from these inevitable events. If you live or work in the Central United States, you need to know why you should be concerned about earthquakes, what you can expect during and after an earthquake, and what you need to do beforehand to be safe and protect your property."

Earthquakes in Arkansas and Vicinity 1699-2010
"This U.S. Geological Survey map poster summarizes approximately 300 years of earthquake activity in Arkansas. It is one in a series of similar State earthquake history maps. Work on the Arkansas map was done in collaboration with the Arkansas Geological Survey. The earthquake data plotted on the map are from several sources: the Arkansas Geological Survey, the Center for Earthquake Research and Information, the National Center for Earthquake Engineering Research, and the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality. In addition to earthquake locations, other materials include seismic hazard and isoseismal maps and related text. Earthquakes are a legitimate concern in Arkansas and parts of adjacent states. The largest historic earthquake in the vicinity of the State was an intensity XI event, on December 16, 1811, the first earthquake in the New Madrid sequence. This violent event and the earthquakes that followed caused considerable damage to the then sparsely settled region. Since 1811 Arkansas has undergone a number of felt earthquakes of magnitude 4.0 and greater. The most significant recent and ongoing earthquake activity are the events of the Enola swarm. Since beginning on January 12, 1982, more than 40,000 events have been recorded. The largest of these was a M4.0 on October 11, 2010."

Earthquakes in Mississippi and Vicinity 1811-2010
"This map summarizes two centuries of earthquake activity in Mississippi. Work on the Mississippi map was done in collaboration with the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, Office of Geology. The earthquake data plotted on the map are from several sources: the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, the Center for Earthquake Research and Information, the National Center for Earthquake Engineering Research, and the Arkansas Geological Survey. In addition to earthquake locations, other materials include seismic hazard and isoseismal maps and related text. Earthquakes are a legitimate concern in Mississippi and parts of adjacent States. Mississippi has undergone a number of felt earthquakes since 1811. At least two of these events caused property damage: a magnitude 4.7 earthquake in 1931, and a magnitude 4.3 earthquake in 1967. The map shows all historical and instrumentally located earthquakes in Mississippi and vicinity between 1811 and 2010. The largest historic earthquake in the vicinity of the State was an intensity XI event, on December 16, 1811; the first earthquake in the New Madrid sequence. This violent event and the earthquakes that followed caused considerable damage to the then sparsely settled region."
