Japan shallow thrust earthquake

Ontario-geofish [2024-01-01 12:57:00]   recommend this post  (471 visits)

 This was a thrust earthquake in the 'backyard', which is normally extension.The aftershocks have already defined the fault plane.Since it was some distance out, the Peak Ground Velocity is probably 20 cm/s on land.  That must be [...]

Priorities

 In physics you establish priorities or rankings.  A force that is less than 10% of the main force is ignored.  Leftwingers take any influence they want and make a big deal of it.  For example, the bit about the [...]

New papers on paleoseismology, active tectonics, and archaeoseismology (Jan 2024) 

paleoseismicity.org [2024-01-02 18:51:38]   recommend this post  (459 visits)

Here’s the latest list of papers on paleoseismology and related fields. Interesting stuff from the NZ and US seismic hazard models, a photo of the fault scarp that formed underwater in the 2011 Tohoku-oki Earthquake, and much more. Have a great [...]

Japan and the difficult choice -- earthquake

Ontario-geofish [2024-01-01 19:49:00]   recommend this post  (454 visits)

 Most of the damaged buildings are on mud and were hit with 40 cm/s.  This is exactly the same as Christchurch.  Their difficult choice is to certify the remaining buildings for occupation.  The problem is that [...]

Pacific sea level takes a dive

 This is my perfect sea level chart.  It neither rises, nor sinks.  It shows all the warm and cold cycles of the past. Everything can be lined up with historic events.  It shows there is not much change with [...]

First Arctic blob chopped off at the knees, second one builds up

 For New Years, the blob has been cut off by Pacific air.The second one is running at 80% certainty, since there appears to be no Pacific air coming over the mountains.The Arctic is fully charged at -50C and ready to spill.The UK is still [...]
