Quoting: Anonymous Coward 12542142 Does LA have a large amount of natural gas reserves other than crude oil? They did not mention anything about natural gas, but would the explain the house moving? Or perhaps the two are caused by seporate things? |

I seriously have no idea. Maybe some kind of gas? I think the houses moving is a little freaky as well. Quoting: gabelmom Possibly could be natural gas, but it seems like the "experts" would have found that right off. There are at least 4 active mud volcanoes in the Gulf of Mexico.

Dokka's theories on how natural tectonic fault movements cause subsidence run counter to studies that have shown oil extraction and soil compaction as main reasons why the land is sinking. This threat from deep underground has major implications. If faults are causing the sinking, there is very little humans can do to offset the subsidence other than build higher levees....'

ladyannie2009 User ID: 18457264 United States 06/30/2012 01:07 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | wow....the bubbles in the Bayou might be connected to the Lake Tahoe cluster quakes we keep hearing about. Fault lines in both areas, and they may be pulling each other. Like a tug-of-rope game. It actually makes tons of sense, and may also explain why the military is in St. Louis--something has happened that isn't being reported (at least to us) and whatever it is, a very large scale earthquake is imminent and they're preparing for it. Remember the MRE's? The medical supplies? The blankets? Body bags? here's the link again [link to www.fbodaily.com] Now if you add the weird booms in Wisconsin (march?) and the Michigan/Illinois radiation....it really could all be related. All these tectonic plates are moving beneath us, and in all directions, creating lots of noise disturbance, lots of small eq clusters, etc. What do you guys think? It really sounds plausible to me, altho I really hope I'm wrong. <snip> With the advance of technology comes the future of discoveries. At least, such was the case when scientists recently uncovered previously unknown fault lines in the mountains near Lake Tahoe. According to a U.S. Geological Survey, “the steep, fault-formed range west of the lake could generate relatively strong earthquakes with magnitudes from 6.3 to 6.9.” To those who live in the area, this news doesn’t come as a completely unexpected shock. The West coast--and especially California--is notorious for fault lines and earthquakes. However, earthquakes can happen anywhere as is evidenced by last summer’s East coast quake that was felt everywhere from New York City to Boston. However, these newly discovered fault lines offer more than just the risk of shaking ground. “Tremblors could trigger landslides along the whole Tahoe-Sierra frontal fault zone,” said Insurance Journal, “stretching from west of Truckee Calif., to the south end of Lake Tahoe through the middle of Squaw Valley USA ski resort, Tahoma, Emerald Bay, and Fallen Leaf Lake.” These “tremblors,” as they’re called, have the unfortunate ability to cause landslides in the mountainous region in which the new faults were found. [link to www.enservio.com] *********************** <snip> As far as natural disasters go, earthquakes are not high on the list of concerns for Louisiana residents. However, LSU geologists say the state may be overdue and the results could be disastrous. "Based on earthquakes in the past, we will probably get a magnitude 5 (on the Richter scale) earthquake every 15 to 20 years," said Juan Lorenzo, geology professor at LSU. Fault lines can be found in northwestern and southern Louisiana in a series of faults referred to as the "Baton Rouge fault system." Lorenzo notes earthquakes that begin along these fault lines would be on par with what hit the East Coast last month. "You would feel the shaking, and it would knock some things over, but there should only be minor damage," Lorenzo said. "The wild card is if we have another huge event in the New Madrid area," said Richard McCulloh, research assistant with the Louisiana Geological Survey at LSU. "What would the consequences be in Louisiana?" The New Madrid earthquakes were a series of earthquakes in 1811 along fault lines in Arkansas, Missouri and Tennessee. According to the United States Geological Survey, the effects were felt across the nation and were so powerful they changed the flow of the Mississippi river and all but destroyed Charleston, SC. (there's a few maps here) [link to www.wafb.com] *************************** <snip> Californians may be unfazed by the knowledge that their state is one of the most seismically active regions in the world, but the addition of even more potential danger can’t be good for those awaiting the next “big one.” Scientists studying earthquakes in the mountains west of Lake Tahoe have found new seismic faults–and they may be hazardous. The largest of their new discoveries is a 22-mile-long strike-slip fault named Polaris for the old mining town it runs through. The fault range could generate strong earthquakes with magnitudes from 6.3 to 6.9, according to the U.S. Geological Survey, but because the fault connects to others in the area, the magnitude could be even higher if they ruptured at the same time. Temblors along the fault could also trigger landslides along the entire Tahoe-Sierra line, which stretches from Truckee to South Lake Tahoe.
