Quake Watch 2010

reply to post by Anmarie96


Despite what it may look like the rest - even the thick area - is pretty much like the first part soundwise except that there seems to be a lot more interference - electrical? I will post the raw file @5000 sample rate (50x speed) You can see the interference start at around 16:54 on the trace (2:29 in the file) It is the rounded blips. They vanish again at about 21:55 on the trace (8:30 in the file)

The file is 6.3Mb and about 10+ mins playing. There are some sounds at the end that sound like quake activity and singing.

Sound file from 14:50 to midnight

Seems they didn't change the magnitude, 6.7 it is, that is a huge bloody aftershock.

Feel for the people living there god damn.

Hahah Berkleygal and I posted at same time, too!

Got to be quick off the mark on here!

Have had several eQuake wobbles from that one - I guess they're still reviewing it.

I posted the preliminary and while editing it to the new one you posted too :-)

We iz fast :-)

Chile cumulative up to and including 15 Mar 2010



I am wondering if this 6.7 is actually an aftershock or a new movement.

reply to post by blayze


It is big, but nonetheless it is actually 1,413 times less energy than the BIG one.

Do you really read my mind or is it people think alike?

Anyway Berkelygal
LOL for the fast part - on the main event - i am shaking my head - i am not even going to comment as i have been up for 48 hrs. and knew this would happen as soon as i said enough - pillow - and with the way things have been reacting - i just might get some sleep between now and then - see you all in a few hours.

Ah.
I didn't quite understand how the magnitude system works, going to go learn more about it now.

I love quake watching!

That is fairly significant. I wonder when this string of earthquakes will end for them. Certainly it cannot go on forever.

We just had two quakes within an hour or so of each other here on the South Island of New Zealand

4.6 Kaikoura
4.0 Te Anau

reply to post by MoorfNZ


Did you feel them?

Stay safe!

USGS evidently doesn't cover your area.

No, I didn't feel either of them - have only felt 3 quakes since emigrating here 6 yrs ago - the last one was pretty hefty and shook the house. NZ has thousands of quakes a year.

Like Cali, we're always talking about when the next big one will hit!

Oh, and I live on an active fault line and have the Southern Alps (the Alpine Fault) on my doorstep.

has anyone got a link to an earthquake watcher as budapests has gone down and aint working

working for me

I did some checking on UW.SMNR and to my eye Mar. 15, 2010
is pretty much like other week days.

www.iris.edu...

The BUD server only keeps 10 days worth of data in the cache,
and that station does not come up in any of the VASE archives
I could find. I guess they consider the station pretty useless
for earthquakes.
