finally a thread I can answer myself:


...whereas default depths of 5 or 10 km are often used in mid-continental areas and on mid-ocean ridges since earthquakes in these areas are usually shallower than 33 km.

thats because they have no clue as to the depth and they just say 10km as a catchall

Q: Why do so many earthquakes occur at a depth of 10km?
A: 10 km is a "fixed depth". Sometimes data are too poor to compute a reliable depth for an earthquake. In such a case, the depth is assigned to be 10 km. In many areas around the world, reliable depths tend to average 10 km or close to it. For example, if we made a histogram of the reliable depths in such an area, we'd expect to see a peak around 10 km. Thus, if we don't know the depth, 10 km is a reasonable guess. We used to use 33 km. Increased understanding indicates that 10 km is more likely. Some areas, like subduction zones, are known to have many earthquakes much deeper than 10 km. In those areas, probably a larger fixed depth would be appropriate.

The most common reason for having to fix the depth is that the earthquake occurred too far from the nearest seismic station. A useful rule of thumb is that a reliable depth requires that the distance from the epicenter to the nearest station must be less than the depth of the earthquake. Modern computational and theoretical advances can now produce reliable depths at greater distances from the nearest station, so the rule of thumb does not always apply nowadays. However, the rule of thumb does illustrate one conclusion: fixed depths are more common for shallow earthquakes than for deep ones.

I know a old, very old Thread
but do someone found "the real Explanation"?

What is the reason for the 10Km Earthquakes?

I have heard a very logical Explanation:
"At exact 10Km Depth the Pressure is that high that the Ground-Water becomes Steam and expand"

Could this be the Reason why we see soooooo many Quakes at 10Km?

I noticed the same and wondered why.

...and due to the scientific odds of that NOT happening I concluded that the earthquakes were obviously engineered. You'd think they change it up every once 'n awhile to make it appear as though the earth randomly created these quakes...but no ..its like a prize marker.

in my humblest of opinions of course

Ach, HAARP is used by many People in the same Way
that the Mossad is responsible for every single political Terroract- it is a excuse and/ but HAARP is imo. not responsible for this

Because 10km is the depth that the reptilians like to roll with their tunneling machines.......

Dunno. Maybe that is where the crust rides over the mantle.

Subduction at the mantle creates a fairly static buffer zone of pressure.
