x****n 发帖数: 950 | 3 "The most widely accepted explanation of how dams cause earthquakes is
related to the extra water pressure created in the micro-cracks and fissures
in the ground under and near a reservoir. When the pressure of the water in
the rocks increases, it acts to lubricate faults which are already under
tectonic strain, but are prevented from slipping by the friction of the rock
surfaces."

An 8.9-magnitude earthquake hit off the east coast of Japan early today. The
quake -- one of the largest in recorded history -- triggered a 23-foot
tsunami that battered Japan's coast, killing hundreds and sweeping away cars
, homes, buildings, and boats. Editors note: we'll post more as the story

Giampaolo Giuliani, a researcher at the National Physical Laboratory of Gran

N****f 发帖数: 25759 | 21 Well, actually it's never that scary because you have no idea at the
time that you are dealing with a 7.2. It doesn't feel much different
from a 4.5 or something that is centered nearby, which happens a
lot around here.
Of course, things are very different closer to the epicenter of a relatively
big earthquake. The strongest one I have ever experienced was a
6.5 centered about ten miles from my house, which happened a few
hours after we had a pretty good shake from the 7.3 Landers earthquake. |
