Funny you mention that Susan. I don't know if you remember the video I posted of my dog freaking of the Arkansas recording? Well, she was laying right by me head while I played these ones and no reaction.

I would say not tectonic too...but not sure what.

I played the second file while my parrot was on my shoulder.... big mistake!

He screamed, tried to bite me, then hid under the table. He has never bitten me in the 13 years I`ve had him, or hidden under the table while shaking like a leaf.

Very odd.

BTW ... that`s my quake alert bird. He is VERY sensitive and alerts even with very small tremors.

In order of appearance I present the following EQ’s as they appeared at EMSC

dogs are smarter,,knew it was a recording!

Love it!!!!

My dogs would agree with you!

Data Package for Magnitude 6.1 Ceram Sea neic_pra5 (usc0005f1c) now available. (1.1 Mb download)

Web site images only and USGS PAGER PDF
neic_pra5.zip

Since the PDF of the web page is essentially just a duplication of the images I have dropped that to save space. The web page should always be available. I anyone would like a PDF copy just u2u me and I will create one for you.

anyone??
i cant figure out the energy release,,
should have either diminished or gotten stronger,,
laws of physics,,,
E seems to be a Constant????

reply to post by Robin Marks


This may be totally OFF but I have to ask if anyone has ever taken into consideration what the sounds sound like that come from the CERN LHC or the RHIC? They are in the Earth for miles and have extreme energy associated with them. If they are "on" would it not pick up the frequency? Just a thought.

reply to post by MamaJ


good thought,,
but being a freq. generated, ,,the source,,
switzerland/france/?,,,
should be the location,,right? i think.

hang on its getting weaker,, plates,,,are stressing,, up north,,alaska/to hekla

Earthquake
Country: Russia
State:
Location: Kostochko
Date: 2011-08-25 : 16:02:18
Magnitude: 4.7
Depth: 116 km

PuterMan! Would this report have anything to do with, or go some wayto explain those 'sounds' you analysed?

" For 30 years geologists have been puzzled by a remarkably straight magnetic line that runs between New York and Alabama along the Appalachians. A more recent aerial magnetic survey of the Alabama end of the line suggests that it’s probably a 500-million-year-old San Andreas-style fault that appears to have slipped 137 miles (220 kilometers) to the right in the distant past. If so, it’s no surprise that the most dangerous part of the eastern Tennessee seismic zone is right next to part of this magnetic line and has the second-highest earthquake frequency in the eastern United States. “It’s most likely a strike-slip fault,” said Mark Steltenpohl of the University of Alabama at Auburn. “But it’s all buried.” The fault is invisible from the surface and there is very little information about it because no one has actually drilled down through it to investigate, Steltenpohl told Discovery News."
There is more, but this report was written in May 2010. Here's the link

Could somebody have a quick look at these two charts please? The first reminds me of the chart that went on for 10 minutes a couple of pages back. The second is from the station that recorded the recent eq's in Scotland.

Thanking whoever in advance as I realise you are all busy, and must be very tired with all the recent activity.

Wow- looks like things lit up on the earthquake chart. Montana, Washington and Cali are all shaking.

Regarding the NY quakes, that has been waiting to happen. I grew up back East and I recall one really good earthquake that hit Vermont that had us all running.

reply to post by angelchemuel


Looks exactly the same as the signatures on the CNNC station for the second one. First one looks more like some interference from the locality.

ETA: BHZ channel from Lerwick LRW.GB..BHZ.2011.237 Microseisms - it is stormy!


Re sounds: No I don't think so. Sorry but I really do not like the scaremongering on that site. There is much bad science on it and much nonsense. For example in that article you linked.

Earth is pretty much a wasteland compared to the way it must have originally looked according to the Biblical narrative and the accounts recorded in myths and legends by peoples who were surviving descendants of the first world patriachs.

Oar holders.

reply to post by PuterMan


OK, thank you for your time once again. Will add Discovery News to my 'ignore' list. Thought in my inocence that the people who wrote the article were educated and qualified.

PS...changing 'ignore' to oar holders!

Hurricane Irene From Space - NASA (Huge Storm)

wow

this (Hurricane Irene ) may start too actually disrupt all further earthquake, stations,,
may get no readings for a while.

reply to post by angelchemuel


Just because I don't like the site does not mean you have to dislike it. It was actually The Extinction Protocol I don't like - that was where the comment was from as an answer to the first poster. On the other site there we no links as to where it came from so.......????

To other things. Vanuatu. One year cumulative shows a steep increase like it did last Jan. Basically it is what Vanuatu does.



It also did it in Jan 2010 and Aug/Sep 2009 ish. and May/Jun 2009

reply to post by BobAthome


The total energy released in mag 4.5+ quakes at Vanuatu in the past month is 5,300 TJ which is just less than the equivalent energy of ONE single 7.3 earthquake. Quakes used in the calculation were:

Add to fact its been raining here (NJ) all month - over 10" of rain more than twice normal amount

oh oh
