With all of these recent felt #earthquakes, many people are asking "does this mean the big one is coming?". These earthquakes are not connected - some are shallow, some deep, all are on different faults and even different tectonic plates. They are far from the locked subduction fault. So no... ⚒️🧪

Worried that the recent earthquakes in Victoria are a sign that the "Big One" is coming? It's unlikely, according to @seos-uvic.bsky.social professor Lucinda Leonard. "There's no reason to think that changes in these stresses will trigger the next 'Big One'." vancouversun.com/news/bc-eart...

Feb. 28, 2001 (at 10:54 a.m.), a damaging M6.8 earthquake rocked Seattle, rolled Victoria and was felt across southern BC and the #PacificNorthwest. This was a deep #earthquake in the subducting Juan de Fuca plate. See links to presentations and a Q+A session at: pnsn.org/blog/2021/02... ⚒️🧪

New paper by Lei Zhao, visiting PhD student at @seos-uvic.bsky.social, on the devastating 2023 Herat, Afghanistan earthquakes. We show how subtle bends in fault geometry broke the sequence into its five successive M6 EQs, preventing a single through-going rupture. www.nature.com/articles/s43...

Did you know that in southwestern #BritishColumbia, tectonic plates are moving at about the same speed your fingernails grow and that we get 3 types of #earthquakes here? Every day, small earthquakes are recorded (1000+/year). For details, see: www.earthquakescanada.nrcan.gc.ca/pprs-pprp/pu... ⚒️🧪
