Dear blog viewers,
I am very sure you are reguraly familiar with earthquakes. With all this happening i still wanted to tell you more than you know. Every time you hear about the earthquake you just think oh the earth shaked. Incorrect there is alot more to it.
Earthquakes are the nature's most dangerous. Earthquakes can hit any place, at any time and at any extreme level. There is no way we as humans can do anything about that because they is no sign to figure like there is for a sunami or somtimes a volcano. We just nedd to study and research harder to find out all we can. An earthquake is caused by due to movement of tectonic plates below the Earth's crust. When they are pushed, pulled or jostled against each other and when the pressure of this movement becomes unbearable the rocks crack and shifts and the waves of energy produced is an earthquake.
The most sensitive zone is Alaska. An earthquake hits at least eight times a year. Another place where earthquakes hit often is in the pacific ocean becauseof the volcanic activity. Earthquakes are not based on weather but are ususally 60 seconds long. there are also moonquakes related to the moon on earth but those don't take place very often.
