Due to the location of the coseismic effects, the barycenter and the focal depth related to this earthquake, it was possible to calculate the magnitude by using several statistical methods. The results show a magnitude in the range 7.4-7.7 Mw, with an average value equal to 7.6 Mw, which is consistent with the instrumental magnitude of 7.6 Mw obtained by Fiedler (1988) and the macrosismic magnitude by Vásquez et al. (2018) equal to 7.5 ± 0.3 Mw estimated by using the Bakun and Wentworth (1997) method.application/pdfCC0 1.0 Universalhttp://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2EarthquakeVenezuela1990Coseismic effectsArtículo de revista
