Quake Watch 2010

Good Morning! I can see I didn't miss too much - - that is good. according to the seismos yellowstone had some smaller quakes during the night after the one that kept me up. :-) . Other than that - it's way to quiet relatively speaking

Good morning Just in time... I'm off for an early night...

Not much to tell - although I'm expecting LOADS of updating to be done in the next few hours as they add in global quakes...

Ok Folks - Puterman - On my post yesterday which was debated - on the 5.1 --- looking at it today - I see I made an error in reading the time. Puterman, you win hands down.

Already posted

There is no win about it. It is good that we have an agreement and that you have resolved your frustration of the missing event.

Such things happen in the heat of a swarm!!

BTW - there are approximately 1096 +/- aftershocks so far

Ok, the question here now is - If we are having a major solar/space weather event --- Why am I looking at a VERY YELLOW MAP???? Does it affect or not??? I guess time will tell. Althought the passage warning was on the 3rd and the 7.2 on the 4th - was it related? Or, are the gates about to burst of their hinges????

It could have been just a coincidence that the 7.2 earthquake occurred during the strong solar activity. But I think rather that it was no accident.

There are already 710 aftershocks ... are the harbingers of a much larger earthquake?

Tomorrow will increase the solar activity at level 6 ..

Ok I posted this on yellowstone as well:

I got this from wikipedia earth magnetic field. In the German version there is a short paragraph about changes in the earth magnetic field during a solar storm. I had to translate it, hope I got everything right.

For those who can understand german: de.wikipedia.org...

The magnetic field of earth deviates the charged particles of the sunwind and by doing so in great hights it gets deformed a lot. Satellite detection show, the buildup of a plasma tail on the far side of earth. By magnetic storms, which are caused by sun eruptions and sun wind, the strength of the earth field varies for short periods of time in the order of magnitude from some 100 to 1000nT.
In addition the solar radiation leads on the dayside to a stronger ionisation in the upper atmospheric layers. The current systems connected to this phenomen influence the earth magnetic field as well in the order of magnitude of some 10nT. This effect is called Sq-variation.
Geostationary satellites in a hight of 36,000 km detect a earth magnetic field in the order of magnitude of 100nT the disturbances by the sun are in the same order and are dominant during strong magnetic storms.

Here is a link to the graph.

de.wikipedia.org...:Ife_010331_kombination.png&filetimestamp=20090103143426

Temporal variant in the earth magnetic field by a magnetic storm on the 31. of March 2001, recorded in Ile-Ife, Nigeria. The x-cordinate gives the time in minutes (Greenwich time), The y-cordinate the magnetic field strength in Nanotesla [nT].
The green curve shows the sq-variant (without magnetic storm) in Ile-Ife.

My guess the forces are not so big, but thei might act on a lot of surface, so who knows. I doubt it would be enough to trigger an earthshake in it self, but help to tip it off?

Ok today I followed a link where I look up my earthshakes, the site is more Europe orientated. So there are smaler european shakes, less US than in your US sites
So for those who are interested:

www.emsc-csem.org...

Puterman you said you did not know where to find seismic data on Marsili vulcano, I found it the Geostar-Orion Platform to belong to the nereis Network. I'm still not shure if there is ongoning data available, or not. But if you should be able to find the data on their network.

Thank you for that link. RSOE & USGS only show so much.

Sorry for double post - i just kinda shaking right now - i just got done telling my daughter another big one was going to hit because it was way to quiet - i am having difficulty finding tsunami waring info

[edit on 6-4-2010 by Anmarie96]

tsunami watch in effect - i will keep refreshing for warnings if any
