I think the megaquake alert serves largely to tell people to make sure their disaster plans and supplies are all up-to-date and stocked properly. I live just outside of where the 2011 tsunami reached (it occurred before I lived in Japan so I was not here for it), so it's definitely on our minds.

Bear in mind that not every building will be used for every disaster. For example, where I live we had a typhoon last summer but my nearest shelter wasn't used. And if there's a tsunami they won't move you to short or low-lying buildings.

That is the problem with short-term thinking: (Btw: Happens in Star Trek... "just suppress quakes", nvm consequences) THE PRESSURE BUILDS UP FURTHER. More earthquakes will lead to weaker quakes and there will be no energy buildup. Same with volcanoes: Hawaii is rather safe, same as Etna and Stromboli. When Vesuvius blows its top, it will be worse than everything we can imagine, due to the buildup.

Could you please include the depth of the quakes in future. I have found this quite interesting in the past. The quake in Christchurch which caused significant damage seems to have been a connect the dots occurrence. If I recall correctly, Pakistan 8am, Uluru 10am, tracking through the rupture from the previous quake (Dargaville or ??), CHCH city 12pm, Bombay Hills... With another Mt Aoraki 11:30am, the other rupture ??, CHCH City 12:30pm. All with decreasing depths down to around 5km. I've also figured that if it doesn't hit the igneous Bombay Hills and rebound, it heads to some insignificant island South East of the southern tip of S.America. while the globe hugging line from Aoraki, goes through CHCH and hits Brazil (their big quake around then), bounces up the east coast of America, hitting Cali, then Washington, before following the bowl. Other paths it could take is the cozca or nazka plates, or sneaking under the northern igneous areas of N.America and popping out as Icelandic volcanic activity that grounds planes (ijahafijallakull spelt poorly). For the first quake in CHCH I told my workmate watch, it's gna hit there in 2 weeks, then go bounce bounce for the next week or so, and probably come all the way around to the northern Pacific thermal plume island, and to the K (something) Russian/Japan volcanos... I scared her. Very much...

I get so nervous every time I hear about an earthquake in Japan. While the country arguably has the absolute best emergency preparedness and emergency response programs on Earth, it still sucks that this is a routine occurrence in the region. Hopefully the damage is minimal and we do not see a potential bigger quake in the near future.
@neoqwerty

Always remember that they've lived for CENTURIES in an earthquake prone region and they build their buildings in a very specific way so they can withstand the shaking by wobbling around instead of standing rigidly. The main problem isn't earthquake so much as tsunamis, and even THEN they're usually prepared for it. Fukushima-Daichi only became a disaster because the original safety backup features were cut for budget reasons, if they'd followed the original safety plans the nuclear plant would have shrugged off the abnormally large tsunami waves, too. They've got this down FAR MORE than most of the world-- and any anomalous event just makes them even better at mitigating.

Its important to note that the great 2011 quake occurred along the portion of the subduction zone where the Pacific plate subducts beneath the Okhotsk plate(basically a severed portion of the North American plate) rather than where the Philippian plate subducts beneath the Amur plate which was where this quake occurred. The Amur and Okhotsk plates are interconnected via a continental convergent plate boundary

@Dragrath1
@Dragrath1 Ай бұрын
Good question it is probably worth noting that the boundary between the Amur plate and Philippian plates is the shortest subduction plate boundary section so the quake being weaker could just be due to that lack of area extent. To the North along the Japanese subduction zone segments it is the Okhotsk plate(formerly considered part of North America but now recognized to be moving independently) which is colliding with the Pacific plate whereas to the South it is the Eurasian plate via the Yangtze microplate which is colliding with the Philippian plate so how the strain change from this quake affects the other isn't easy to understand as this area involves 5 different independent tectonic plates.

I have a mathematical model in mind to explain 'foreshocks'. After a significant quake, there are aftershocks, which is to say that the rate of earthquakes increases. Say after a magnitude 7 quake, the rate is increased by a factor of a thousand for the next week. (Actually I'd expect the rate to decay over this time, but it doesn't matter for my argument.) So essentially you get a thousand weeks (of quiescent rate) worth of earthquakes in one week. Sometimes that thousand weeks worth happens to include a larger earthquake. When this happens, we call the initial quake a 'foreshock'. The essence of this model is that the size distribution (I believe normally a power law) of aftershock earthquakes is the same as the quiescent size distribution. The later larger quake is simply one that got randomly selected from this distribution. So, seisemologists out there: does this model describe reality?

Amurian plate?
@Dragrath1
@Dragrath1 Ай бұрын
Yes there are 5 tectonic plates at play within Japan making it a fascinating area of tectonic complexity. Of these there are 3 primarily continental plates involved, the Amurian plate the Eurasian plate the Okhotsk plate(formerly considered part of North America but now having been shown to have become independent in essence a fragment of the North American plate) and then two Oceanic plates the Philippian plate and Pacific plate. Of these plates the Amurian plate has the smallest subduction zone cross section, as further North the Okhotsk plate is colliding with the Pacific plate while to the southwest it is the Eurasian plate colliding with the Philippian plate. The Amur plate is kind of sandwiched in-between as it rifts away from Eurasia within the Baikal rift zone and the Korean pull away basin separating Korean peninsula which is part of the Amur plate from mainland China to the west while to the North the Amur plate is actively colliding with the Okhotsk plate in a continental continental type collision. The Amur plate is one of the most interesting tectonic plates for me because of how many different types of active plate boundaries it has with rifting in the Baikal rift zone, transform faulting between Eurasia further into china resulting in one of China's most dangerous fault zones featuring the deadly 1975 Haicheng and 1976 Tangshan earthquakes i.e. the San Andreas of China with the major river valley , the pull away basin(though largely filled in by delta sediments. Compared to Eurasia it is moving east in a counterclockwise manner and contains most of the extensive back arc extensional basin known as the Sea of Japan. Additionally the melts which fuel the volcanism where the Amur plate is pulling away from Eurasia feature a fairly exotic basaltic trace element composition that is otherwise generally only seen in geological record within the melts that compose the great continental flood basalt eruptions responsible for driving the break up supercontinents and thanks to seismic tomography it has been linked to hydrous saturated upwelling from a stagnant flat Pacific slab. In essence it is like a mini Wilson cycle. The Earthquake in January of this year also involved the Amur plate so it is a very active tectonic zone which again exhibits a number of tectonic properties normally only seen at the end of a Wilson Cycle albeit scaled down in scope.

7.1 isn't big enough to generate a tsunami. This wasn't a slow quake or slow slip. This was Sudden energy Being released. Fears of a major quake in the nankai trough region And throughout japan's archipelago remain ground zero for Megathrust earthquakes and Tsunami's.

Tsunamis are caused by a displacement in the water. A 7.1 is absolutely enough to cause a tsunami if the motion is vertical. A 5 pointer could cause one. And most quakes aren’t slow

@@canyounotmydude9155 you obviously have absolutely no idea what a slow slip, slow quake or episodic tremor event is. Yeah that’s absolutely comical but with a kindergarten charm. Please Do some research before looking foolish. Rarely will anything below a 7.0 generate a tsunami. maybe a high tide or a small one depending on the circumstances. if the 7.0 event is close to the coastline with vertical lift, it could generate a small and maybe a significant tsunami, but it has rarely happened.🤷🏻‍♂️ remember the Richter scale was re-scaled back in 1970’s I believe. Again, please do some research. Better yet watch some lectures on great tsunamis of the northwest Pacific. Learn what a slow quake is and why it’s significant to unravel the code and decipher the earth signals.

@@user-lo8pd7co7q okay 1. I never said that slow earthquakes (or low-frequency earthquakes) don’t exist, just that they are far less common than most earthquakes, which usually last a few seconds (including most significant ones) 2. According to NOAA “Most tsunamis are generated by earthquakes with magnitudes over 7.0 that occur under or very near the ocean (usually at or near subduction zones, where oceanic and continental plates collide) and less than 100 kilometers (62 miles) below the Earth’s surface.”, and yes maybe I was wrong about 5.0s causing tsunamis on their own… that’s a keyword, on their own. Earthquakes are also known to cause another thing called *landslides*, which can cause a bunch of displacement in the water and create pretty decently sized tsunamis (including when the landslides solely happen under water). Also your original argument was that a 7.1 can’t cause a tsunami at all.. what? 3. If you actually watched the video, the earthquake was really close to the coastline 4. GeologyHub made a really good and detailed video essay on that last thing just a few days ago.

@@user-lo8pd7co7q for some reason KZbin deleted my reply to you, so I'm instead gonna make a short rebuttal because I couldn't care less about rewriting that all over again. 1. I never said that slow slip earthquakes don't exist, just that they're aren't as common as non-slow slip. Most tectonic earthquakes (including significant ones) are only a few seconds long, because whatever tectonic movement causes them are very abrupt. 2. While yes, NOAA does say that *most* tsunamis are caused by shallow earthquakes 7.0 and up, *most* is always a keyword. Landslides (especially underwater landslides) also exist and are very frequently caused by earthquakes. (also also, a tsunami is a tsunami, even if it's one inch high) 3. This earthquake was close to the shoreline. 4. GH has a pretty good and detailed video on the Cascades Big One that he made just a few days ago.
