Quebec/Ontario Quake Felt Across U.S. Northeast [2010-06-23] It was only a magnitude-5.0 event, one that would scarcely arouse people in, say, Sumatra, but the earthquake that struck southernmost Quebec near Ottawa today at 1:41 p.m. local time was felt from Chicago to Washington DC to Halifax...Read Full Post

New areas prone to moderate earthquakes identified in Iberian Peninsula [2010-06-22] Some areas of the Iberian Peninsula, where earthquakes of moderate magnitude have never yet been recorded, such as certain parts of the Cordillera Cantabrica mountain range, the far west of the Cordilleras Beticas mountains and the north of Valencia, could have the potential to generate such quakes, according to a study produced by Spanish, Russian and Italian scientists and published this month in the journal Rendiconti Lincei. www.eurekalert.org
Earthquakes May Fire In Synchrony, Just Like Fireflies [2010-06-20] In nature, random signals often fall mysteriously in step. Fireflies flashing sporadically in early evening soon flash together, and the same harmonic behavior can be seen in chirping crickets, firing neurons, swinging clock pendulums and now, it turns out, rupturing earthquake faults.

As bicentennial approaches... [2010-06-07] A team of scientists with the U.S. Geological Survey will be conducting a series of seismic profiling tests near the New Madrid Fault during the first part of June. Using the ldquo;Thumper rdquo; truck, researchers with the USGS and University of Texas hope to gather new insight into another region south of the New Madrid Fault zone that likely experienced large earthquakes 5000 to 7000 years ago.
By vibrating the ground with the truck and listening to the echoes, this high-resolution seismic-imaging study looks underground and into the past for the presence of faulting below a series of earthquake-induced sandblows.

Tuesday, June 8, 2010Anytime between 9 a.m. подробнее... www.usgs.gov
Odds 1-in-3 for Northwest Mega-Quake Within 50 Years [2010-05-25] A major earthquake, similar to what devastated Chile and Haiti, has more than a one-in-three chance of striking the U.S. Pacific Northwest within the next 50 years, scientists say.(LiveScience) www.kjvbible.org
Aseismic slip as a barrier to earthquake propagation [2010-05-11] A research team made up of scientists from the U.S., Peru and France report on their analysis of GPS data from the 2007 Pisco quake in Peru. They found, in part, that 50 percent of the postseismic slippage is aseismic -- movement along a fault that occurs without any accompanying seismic waves. www.sciencedaily.com
Peruvian tectonic plates move by earthquakes and non-seismic slip [2010-05-10] Just a few years ago, Dan Farber happened to be doing field work in Peru with students when the 8.0 Pisco earthquake struck. As a scientist working in the active tectonics of the Peruvian Andes Farber was asked by colleagues if he could participate in a rapid response team to map the damage of the seismic deformation and install a system of geodetic stations. www.sciencedaily.com
New phenomenon found in internal waves [2010-04-28] Internal waves — huge but nearly invisible ripples that occur in the oceans, the atmosphere and stars — can play an important role in climate change and other processes, but there is plenty about them that remains to be understood. подробнее... web.mit.edu
