Abstract
The paleoseismic research aims to document earth activity during earthquakes, such as displacements of fault, rupture location, distribution of slip or ground shaking intensity. The earthquakes are usually distributed on the plate boundaries causing big damages of life on the Earth. Four faults in North America, New Zealand and Europe with different behaviour, direction and sense of movement have been chosen to document the seismic activity within the world. The White Creek Fault, the Greendale Fault, the San Andreas Fault and the Paganica Fault have been responsible for the earthquakes of M > 6 in the last century. Figures in this paper show the evidence of the earthquakes that can be visible in the field.
