Mohajer-Ashjai, A. and Nowroozi, A.A. (1983). Reply to M. Berberian’s comment on the paper, A. Mohajer-Ashjai and A. A. Nowroozi ‘‘The Tabas earthquakes of September 16, 1978 in East Central Iran,’’ G. R. L. No. 9L0391. Geophysical Research Letters 10: doi: 10.1029/GL010i003p00199. issn: 0094-8276.

The Tabas earthquake of September 16, 1978, M=7.7, has been associated with extensive thrust faulting; there has been some confusion about the fault-length associated with this earthquake. At least 70 km of fresh surface faulting is associated with this earthquake together with several branches of secondary faulting.

We thank Mr. Berberian for his interest in our paper, however, his aberrant comments have provided this opportunity for us to clarify several points. Se Berberian (1982).
