“…Manaus is considered a seismogenic zone with epicenters located around the confluence between the Negro and Solimões rivers (COSTA et al, 1996;MIOTO, 1993). Downstream of the study area, an earthquake with an estimated magnitude of ~7 was recorded in 1690, being considered the largest in the Amazon region, afterwards earthquakes were recorded in the region of the municipality of Codajás in 1963, upstream of the study area, with magnitude of 5.1, result of a reverse fault oriented NNE; and in the municipality of Manaus in 1980, with magnitude 3.4, the result of a reverse fault oriented approximately to NNW, probably the tremors of these events affected the study area (ASSUMPÇÃO; SUÁREZ, 1988;VELOSO, 2014). However, at Manacapuru station (MACA) in 2014-2020 historical series there are no seismic records, indicating that, in recent years, when the events of "Terras Caídas" have intensified, this has not been a conditioning factor for Xiborena Island.…”
