Canada also tio 7.7 earthquake

[tioliaohuat]

VANCOUVER: A strong 7.7 magnitude earthquake shook the Queen Charlotte Islands off the west coast of Canada late Saturday, US government researchers said.

The epicenter of the tremor, which occurred at 8:04 pm (0304 GMT Sunday) was located 139 kilometers (86 miles) south of the town of Masset, the US Geological Survey said.

The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said there was no "destructive widespread tsunami threat" at this time.

However, the regional West Coast-Alaska Tsunami Warning Center issued a regional warning for coasts located near the epicenter of the earthquake.

There were no immediate reports of casualties or damage.

The earthquake reading was based on the open-ended Moment Magnitude scale used by US seismologists, which measures the area of the fault that ruptured and the total energy released.

Earthquakes have been increasing in frequency and intensity.

Where did you get that data from?

Such data is very easily retrieved and I am sure she can defend her post. It is you who love to stir things up like on that thread about Chinese.

I'm just wondering how such conclusions can be arrived at when the first seismograph was invented less than 150 years ago.

It wasn't invented by the Chinese that's for sure. Profound inventions require real intelligence.

 

[tualingong]

must be this guy is responsible for it.

Well she must be comparing the recordings of the quakes now to when they were first recorded following the invention of the seismograph. So her statement is still valid for the time frame under consideration.

In the early days, only a handful of countries had earthquake monitoring capability. For example, in 1931, there were 350 monitoring stations worldwide. Today, there are more than 8000.

Comparisons between one era and another are impossible.

Not ideal i agree but not 'impossible '

Somehow I've this feeling that this thread will end up a religious one, with someone coming up with an end days Christian warning.

Are you saying that God is the cause of all these earthquakes.

 

[Vigilante911]

Yes, Christians say the bible in the end days, more earth-quakes.

That's what I thought Tracy would lead us to, but she MIA liao.

I don't believe in the crap that there're more earth-quakes now than in the past. I'm very well-read in this area, but all info
from the web, not my own experiments.

Rofl. Good one bro!

Vancouver does lie on the fault line, so it is no surprise, even Ontario lie on the fault lie too.

 

[Cestbon]

Earth fault line are moving more often now. It will shift few meter apart.

Muahahahaha ! Nice one !

 

[valiant20]

Earthquakes are occurring everyday.. Earth is shifting everyday.. It is just a matter of how big they are and whether they are being felt or not..
