Reply to “Comment on ‘The 28 December 1908 Messina Straits Earthquake (mw 7.1): A Great Earthquake throughout a Century of Seismology,’ by N. A. Pino, A. Piatanesi, G. Valensise, and E. Boschi” by A. Amoruso, L. Crescentini, and R. Scarpa

Reply to a Comment to a paper by Pino et al. (2009)This is a rather unusual comment that focuses on how a specific figure was constructed rather than on actual scientific results. The figure in question (Figure 9 from Pino et al. 2009) does not even show new data or results, but is simply a summary of slip models that have been proposed in the literature for the 1908 earthquake. All models describe slip distributions from coseis- mic elevation changes except for one, derived by Pino et al. (2000) based on waveform modeling of historical seismograms.Published229-2313.1.
