It can happen anywhere a M6.5 or above can happen. The bigger the quake the longer that kind of thing happens. However, even a M6.5 can do that. I know of a...
Hi Kim and all, OMG! That sounds terrifying!!! Yet, what a *awesome* observation that he was able to make!!! I gather that the tower didn't fall! I am...
Sandi, Anything over M6.5 can do that which is not to say they ALL do that. However, I NEVER said that M6.5 was the lower range for quakes to create visible...
Have many people on this list experienced earthquakes, I've never felt one I live in a pretty quiet area ie not on a fault line. Though like that article says,...
Indeed, thank you Kim! Finally! At last to have it quantified! It's been sooo long in coming! Yet also, even closer "distant aftershock" earthquake triggering...
OK, got it now. This could be an entire lengthy discussion in itself. But, let's not! <g> Sandi, Anything over M6.5 can do that which is not to say they ALL do...
Hi Antony, Though doubtful, it's possible that you may never feel one in Melbourne. Most of us on this list that are in the western USA or NZ, anywhere along...
Hi, Yeah your right. Though there have been some pretty large ones nearby. The heads of Port Phillip bay at the entrance to Melbourne have had some big ones,...

Aw yes, Now, there's an excellent seismic hazard map of Australia. Thank you. Too short a holiday! ;) Sandi ... Port Phillip bay at the entrance to Melbourne...
Hi again Antony, Could be. Though I'm not familiar with that dam, we've also had a case of Reservoir Induced Seismicity (RIS) in California, USA at our ...

You're right the "waves" of damage in the Sichuan quake was mind-blowing. While watching the video, I was sitting in my chair horrified, shocked and ...
In a cell phone tower during a 6.5? Not some place I would want to be. Bre It can happen anywhere a M6.5 or above can happen. The bigger the quake the...
Hi Sandi, I'm not sure if I have ever heard of a quake having to be a certain magnitude or above before you can see the earth moving in "waves." And if I...
Antony, The answer is "no". Three Gorges Dam is too far away to have caused this quake. Kim ... -- Check out http://groups.yahoo.com/group/californiadisasters/...
yes the answer is "no" i do not know distance of dam but due to the fact that Reservoir induced seismic events can not have such magnitude as experienced in...

It's pretty close, who knows if the large pressure of it effected the ground water. http://time-blog.com/china_blog/2008/05/sichuan_quake_iiithree_gorges.html ...
Oh, my apology Antony, and thanks for correcting that Kim, I had my mind on Australia rather than China at that moment, as if Antony was referring to that, and...
