do you think the melting ice caps could cause such a change in weight distribution on the earths crust that its causing more earthquakes?  did i just earn a PhD?



Mmm... don't think so. Earthquakes (as derived by plate tectonics) from what I gather are more driven by convection in the mantle - which if it can move entire plates of crust on the surface... even billions of pounds of redistribution (which occurs over time) would be negligible.




anything that causes the plates to move will cause earthquakes.  how much effect melting ice will have on the plates, i don't know, but it has to be something.  have earthquakes been happening more often lately?  if so that would support something perhaps.  hmmm, i love doing science when i'm stoned, doesn't really mattar whether i'm right or not :smile:

You cant outrun a tsunami. Watch the footage

It looks slow, but these tsunamis travel 500mph in the sea and a recorded speed for the 2004 Tsunami was 37 mph once it hit land. Perspective:

They look slow because youre not standing in front of them. The footage of the tsunami coming up and cars trying to outdrive it show the speed

Yeah, what was so bad about that tsunami was that it hit poverty-stricken areas ripe with tourists during the Christmas season. No one knew, they just though it was a really, really low tide or something.

Also keep in mind this is a 13 foot high wall of water. Water is EXTREMELY powerful, only a few inches can wash away a car like nothing.

cnn's saying people in japan are reporting aftershocks are still hitting, though they're obviously not near as strong at this point. there's still fires everywhere and its still expected that another big wave or two will come in. this one's pretty bad, to say the least.

Probably a bunch. On the news they were reading tweets and lots of people were tweeting about dead family members

I'm assuming those people are overseas? There can't possibly be any type of internet or phone available there, can it?

I bet there are far more people dead. An 8.9 earthquake followed by a tsunami doesnt spare very many lives
