They're calling the New Madrid quakes after shocks from the 1811-12 quake | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 883578 United States 03/30/2010 08:50 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | WTF? seriously? The dumbest thing I have ever heard [link to kocoweatherblog.wordpress.com] Quoting: ~Amber~Dumb? I guess if your opinion states so. However, Omori's law describes how aftershocks tail off to a steady background rate as the reciprocal of time (that is, 10 years later aftershocks occur at 1/10 the rate). So, it would be 1/200 the rate and New Madrid quakes are not build ups for a big EQ but instead after shocks of the last. Love to you ! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 929799 United States 03/31/2010 03:02 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Maybe this is a bit cheeky but I think all quakes are foreshocks AND aftershocks...I know it sounds stupid but think about it.. Quoting: sd1975not so stupid. but remember, its the time between the events that connect them. the new madrid is a fault. it has quakes. its been a while since the last big one. calling current quakes aftershocks doesnt compute. this must be from some current model they are working from. most science isnt settled but geophysics certainly is not. just ask jim berkland. |
