This is nothing new unless you were asleep during basic science class. Try researching some time: The San Andreas fault line makes up part of what's known as the Circum-Pacific Belt or Ring of Fire. [link to www.nationalgeographic.com (secure)] Not sure why those who do not live along the fault line areas are attempting to generate fear porn on here other than to do just that. I've been through only 3 quakes in over 30 years. It happens get over it. |

Quoting: misty eyed [link to laist.com (secure)] THE BIG ONE Part Of The San Andreas Fault Is Moving Way Faster Than We Previously Thought As if the San Andreas fault wasn't concerning enough, research just released today shows that a nearby portion of it is moving much faster than scientists previously thought. It's called the Mission Creek strand and it runs from around Indio, through Desert Hot Springs and into the San Bernardino Mountains. While it was long believed to have a slip rate of around 14 millimeters per year, the paper, published in Science Advances, argues that it's actually around 22 millimeters. <50% I couldn't get your linky to worky here's another...

The movement of land at a greater rate does not then insinuate that there is less pressure build up than if there were no movement . The point is that you obfuscate when you equate greater fault movement over time with how much the fault is being held back , Let’s say the fault has sufficient force to move at 50km per year but is only moving at 14 that’s a lot different than if it were moving 14 km per year and only had the force to move 16 , you see the difference? The fact that the fault has been determined to move at 50 percent greater rate could mean a 50 percent greater increase in stress , or decrease in time to accumulate said stress . That would result in more seismic events than the current models predict because there is more kinetic motion than had been initially surmised . I could definitely be completely wrong though .

Quoting: misty eyed That's a big Twinkie. Right under the Golden Gate Bridge footing, it's a big deal. ;-) This is a big deal. San Francisco like most port cities have a huge amount of marsh land. The fill dirt is brought in to build on. So as time goes by, the small, tremors start to add up. The effects of shaking on the land fill sites becomes noticeable. The process of liquifaction takes hold and as the earth quivers things start to sink in to the landfill. This jelly like movement causes structures to sink, like quicksand. Leaning Tower of Pizza, Venice, Easter Island's Stones Etc This is why the San Francisco Earthquake of 1906 was so devastating. Only the city engineers know the full story but this bit of info isn't purely for trivia's sake. It has a purpose. You’re absolutely right and kudos for getting the term liquefaction right! Lol I will follow this. Thank you! Making sammiches great again! USA! USA! USA! |

HOW FAR ARE THE STUDY SITES AND THIS...'THING'?!.. The geyser is in Sultan Sea area. Serious volcanic activity going on in that region. The study about the increases in movement takes place under the San Francisco Golden Gate Bridge, San Fran pillor side. Point is CA is going to go down the same road as Iceland, Italy and Japan. Hang on. I WATCH FOR THE FULL AND NEW MOONS THE PERIGEE APOGEE INFO AND THE TIDES. muckuh |

This and Yellowstone are overdue. Both are tourist attractions which is LOL. San Francisco being destroyed in movies being great conditioning. Surely seems like the "apocalypse", don't you think? |

They built them in the desert. Then millions of people moved in. Can't end well. They should have built desalinization plants instead of draining all the water from the Colorado river. L.A. being the main culprit. |

Wow, never seen April fuels look so... dry. No new growth anywhere in this Chamise. April is climatologically the highest live FMC of the season. Very Scary!" My words; this find of no new growth is another way of saying everything is dead. Common to have areas of trees dying around geographically unstable areas. More signs of the big one... |
