A major North American earthquake fault, dormant for 12,000 years, is awakening

In a new study published recently in Geophysical Research Letters, scientists warn that a major earthquake fault, dormant for 12,000 years, is awakening.

This fault, called the Tintina Fault, stretches like a massive scar, diagonally across the Yukon Territory in northwestern Canada and into Alaska, USA, for approximately 1,000 kilometers.


It was previously widely believed that the Tintina Fault, while once highly active, was no longer a threat. Monitoring data from recent decades seems to confirm this: aside from occasional minor earthquakes of magnitude 3 or 4, the Tintina Fault has been remarkably quiet.


However, past earthquake studies in the region have largely relied on historical records and modern instrumental monitoring, which together cover only a few hundred years. For an earthquake fault with activity cycles of tens of thousands or even millions of years, this is like trying to judge a person's lifetime based on a single second of…

A 200-meter wave raged for 9 days, causing a mysterious shock around the world

ree

In the remote Greenland Fjord, an unprecedented landslide not only shook the earth, but also triggered a nine-day "earth-shaking" wave spectacle. This feat of nature is as shocking as a science fiction movie, but behind it lies a severe warning from climate change.


Last September, an unusual earthquake signal traveled across the earth and was captured by precision sensors around the world. This was not an ordinary seismic wave, but a huge change from the depths of the Greenland Fjord. Scientists responded quickly and launched a cross-border detective investigation, which eventually revealed the secret of this "earth-shaking" event.


It turned out that a huge mountain collapsed under the support of the glacier, carrying millions of cubic meters of rock and glacial ice, and instantly fell into the fjord, stirring up a huge wave as high as 200 meters. However, this huge wave did not dissipate in the vast ocean as…

200米巨浪肆虐9天,引发全球神秘震动

ree

在遥远的格陵兰峡湾,一场规模空前的山体滑坡不仅撼动了大地,还引发了持续九天的“地球震动”巨浪奇观。这场自然界的壮举,如同科幻电影般震撼,其背后却隐藏着气候变化带来的严峻警示。

去年9月,一场不同寻常的地震信号穿越了地球,被全球各地的精密传感器捕获。这并非普通的地震波,而是源自格陵兰峡湾深处的一场巨变。科学家们迅速响应,展开了一场跨越国界的侦探式调查,最终揭示了这场“震撼地球”的秘密。


原来,是一座巨大的山体在冰川的支撑下轰然崩塌,携带着数百万立方米的岩石和冰川冰,瞬间坠入峡湾,激起了高达200米的巨浪。然而,这场巨浪并未如往常般在广阔的海洋中消散,反而被狭窄的峡湾“囚禁”,在接下来的九天里,它如同被困的巨兽,不断在峡湾内来回激荡,产生了持续不断的震动。

Pet Python Accurately "Predicted" Earthquakes 20 Times in 8 Years

Whether animals can predict earthquakes or sense earthquakes in advance has been a hot topic for a long time.

According to quora netizen Mojo Rose's description, she has a pet python at home. The python will show some weird behaviors before every earthquake.

The most obvious of these is to stand up with the entire body standing up, with the tail as little as possible on the floor, and then stay in this position all day and night until the earthquake occurs and is over.

Because Mojo Rose lives on the West Coast of the United States, which is one of the most earthquake-prone places in the world, the snake has exhibited this behavior a total of 20 times in the past 8 years, each time on the day before and on the day of the earthquake. .

When the latest incident occurred, the snake had grown to nearly 8…
