Recent studies of past earthquakes indicate a
natural cyclical pattern. Although it may be a
natural periodic occurrence, no one knows exactly
when, how and where the next round of seismic
events will unfold. It appears the most
vulnerable areas are U.S. Midwest (New Madrid),
eastern Canada, Australia?and Germany.
A recent Smithsonian Institute article reports:
"Three hundred years of tectonic pressure has now
built up since the 1700 tsunami occurred. A
recent study estimates that 10 million people on
the U.S. West Coast would be affected by a
Cascadia subduction-zone quake. Today, the
shaking from a quake of the same magnitude would
damage 200 highway bridges, put Pacific ports out
of business for months, and generate shock waves
capable of toppling tall buildings and long
bridges in Seattle and Portland."
Well, the seismometer's busy...
The growing list.
