I am more and more convinced that Sun has something to do with quakes...
Although there is no direct link (that we know of) between these solar storms and the earthquakes, it does make you wonder. The sun has been
producing storms forever yet this solar cycle 24 would have to be different from all previous cycles if it were indeed causing the Earth to react with
earthquakes. Either that, or something is going on with Earth which is causing the energy ejected from these storms to affect it.
Now, I don't know enough about the topic, but I think the last two big Chile quakes were right after magnetic filaments collapsed:
2/24/2010 between 0719 and 1919 UT The GIANT magnetic filament collapses.
2/27/2010 at 0634 UT the 8.8 quake hits Chile
---
3/10/2010 at 0745 UT two (smaller) magnetic filaments collapses.
3/11/2010 at 1439 UT 7.2 quake (followed by 6.9 quake) hits Chile
I was (and still am) predicting that any earthquake activity, if related to this solar activity, would be centered around early morning 3/13/2010
UT.
Sure, this could be complete coincidence, but we cannot rule out that there may be some sort of energy transfer which we are not aware of yet. Time
will tell. If we keep getting large quakes directly following collapsed filaments... well, we will all have to draw our own conclusions from that.
