“…Guiraud et al (1993) discussed the relationship between seismites and magnitude of cretaceous paleoearthquake, at the same time connected forming process of soft sediment lique ed curled deformation with earthquake facies triggered by activities of growth faults, taking the relationship among focal depth, magnitude and sediments liquefaction into consideration, and excluded deformation caused by ancient slope, gravity load and diagenesis. In geological history, softsediment curled deformation structures with some small growth faults have a wide distribution, which are associated with the earthquake vibration, and they are considered as a crucial key to determine whether the paleoearthquake exists or not (Obermeier, 1996;Pope et al, 1997;Ettensohn et al, 2000;Moretti, 2000;Zhang et al, 2007;Houston et al, 2008;Khan and Shah, 2016;Ezquerro et al, 2016;Deev et al, 2018Deev et al, , 2019; Qiao et al, (1994) called layers with curled deformation and boudinage structures as earthquake fold rocks, which were formed when these original sediments were transformed in situ.…”
