Anonymous Coward User ID: 53314112 United States 09/23/2015 03:38 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | In 2014, 585 quakes of a magnitude 3.0 or larger rattled Oklahoma – 3 times the number that rocked California. So far this year, 600 quakes have rattled the area, with the largest being a 4.5 striking the small town of Crescent. Scientists point to oil and gas drilling as the cause. “It’s completely unprecedented,” said George Choy, a seismologist at the US Geological Survey. Oklahoma has 4,500 disposal wells, and about 3,200 operate on a daily basis. Many lawmakers and industry experts have been slow to accept fracking as the cause of the violent spike in earthquakes, but the numbers over the years tell the story: there were 20 quakes in 2009, 35 in 2010, 64 in 2011, 35 in 2012, 109 in 2013 and 585 in 2014. As fracking increased, so did the shaking. “We are the only state where once this problem came up, we just kept going (with fracking),” said Johnson Bridgwater, the executive director of the Oklahoma chapter of the Sierra Club, a prominent environmental group. “We want public safety to come first, rather than treating this state as a giant lab.” What worries many scientists and residents even more than the increase in quakes is the question of whether they’ll get bigger and more damaging. The answer to that question depends on who you ask. Industry experts, of course, say they won’t. The results of a new study released Friday, however, suggests that things are going to get much worse. According to researchers, a portion of the state – the area around Guthrie, Langston and Stillwater – are at risk of having a 5.0 earthquake or larger on a weekly basis by the end of the year. [2] “If a major part or the whole of the GLS (Guthrie, Langston and Stillwater) structure is accidentally re-activated in a low-stress-drop regime by wastewater injection, it is capable of generating a significant earthquake in the range (magnitude) 5.5-6.5 or greater,” Chris Hartnady, a South African geologist, said in the study.

Creepy. So it turns blood red on Sunday night? Or Monday night? From the USA Today link above... The total eclipse will start at 10:11 p.m. EDT (7:11 p.m. PDT) Sunday evening and will last one hour and 12 minutes. It will be visible across North and South America, Europe, Africa, and parts of West Asia and the eastern Pacific, NASA said. Weather permitting, folks in the eastern half of North America can watch every stage of the eclipse, from beginning to end of the partial phases, with the moon mostly high in the sky, Sky and Telescope reports. In the West, the first partial stage of the eclipse will already be in progress when the moon rises in the east around sunset. ~*Ride the Wave*~ |
