Quake Watch 2011

reply to post by muzzy


Muzzy, would you be able to add cme's into that graph?
It would be interesting to compare those also.

Three 6+ quakes in one day? Is that a record? I am counting the last one as today because it is still today for me. I dont go by USGS time.

1993 was a pretty quiet year, for Mag 7+'s anyway

The "SuperMoon" was on March 8th

1993 (off World 7's Project)

As Shultz used to say "I see nothing"

6's ...... who knows

Can you show me a source with data lists incl dates?
and what should I be putting in the graph?, just X-class flares?

just thought I would promote my thread a bit. I have been actively lurking the fragile earth and space Exp. boards and came up with an idea for all the great info I have been getting most these links are yours just my way of thanking everyone for all the great info I have learned here.

Putermans links to the earth and universe

Guys...there has been a huge quake somehwere.

Seeing it on GEE...but not on USGS yet. I am afraid it is on the Juan De Fuca. My house quivered right at the same time and my dogs are going crazy...my ears are popping. I don't like the quakes off the shore earlier.

I don't know much about it, but is this one any help?
Hope you are ok, Muzzy, you don't seem yourself today.

reply to post by westcoast


Can't find anything except a little bump on the glacier peak seismo.
That must have given you quite a scare.

reply to post by zenius


Yup..I have calmed down more now.

Still nothing on USGS...thinking it may be local to Arkansas? Crazy if it is...here is a screen shot of when it started.

reply to post by zenius

Na thats too old.
I don't know much more about CME's than I just read in the last half hour \


How do you mean, not myself?
Just put our cat down this morning, she had AIDS , 3 years old, we only had her for 8 months ex SPCA.

reply to post by muzzy


Oh, I am so sorry to hear that. How terribly sad. No wonder you are not yourself.

On topic, there must be someone on here that knows the best place to get the data, but if not, oh well.

reply to post by westcoast


All the PNSN broadband regional seismos have waves. Feel seasick after looking at them.
Very odd?

reply to post by muzzy


I really wish I had time to find more articles about the moon at the moment. Glad you're looking at it.

Thanks, she was a nice cat. She got sick about a 2 months ago, we (and the Vet) thought it was an allergy, and had been going through various diet options, but nothing changed. Blood tests confirmed on Friday.

About the CME's. If I understand correctly what I have read so far there are 3 classes, C,M and X. Its the X class that do the damage to Earths electical equipment. They don't happen often.
I found this off NOAA, they have the last 1/4 Yr data observations, lists how many of each class of flare were observed. www.swpc.noaa.gov...

only one X class flare this year?, on the 15th Feb, maybe someone who follows this stuff can confirm this, so we know am on the right track.

edit: its OK, found it myself www.universetoday.com...

yes looks lke that data may be worth running beside the quake and lunar data, there was a mass of 15 & 23 C class flares yesterday and today ...hmmmmm

reply to post by muzzy


My condolences about your cat, losing a friend is always hard.

C,M, and X refer to solar flare X-ray brightness, and yes, X is the largest. However, there are levels within these categories as well as the one in February was a X 2.2.

"A solar flare is an explosion on the Sun that happens when energy stored in twisted magnetic fields (usually above sunspots) is suddenly released. Flares produce a burst of radiation across the electromagnetic spectrum, from radio waves to x-rays and gamma-rays. [more information]

Scientists classify solar flares according to their x-ray brightness in the wavelength range 1 to 8 Angstroms. There are 3 categories: X-class flares are big; they are major events that can trigger planet-wide radio blackouts and long-lasting radiation storms. M-class flares are medium-sized; they can cause brief radio blackouts that affect Earth's polar regions. Minor radiation storms sometimes follow an M-class flare. Compared to X- and M-class events, C-class flares are small with few noticeable consequences here on Earth."

Thanks lasertaglover.

I get the categories, just can't find the right data.
Using that list is OK for numbers of flares and categories but it doesn't give breakdowns of category ie is that one [C] on day 3 a C1 or a C8
I'll have to keep fishing around the NOAA site

Meantime heres the revised graph with the number of flares added in, and todays Solomons 6.5/6.6 added too.
Doesn't seem the quantity of flares has any effect on the number or size of earthquakes anyway.

"We’ve had 2 major quakes strike since we posted our report on tectonic plate tension – a 6.5 at 84 km in the Sandwich Island regions north of Antarctica and a 6.6 earthquake in the Solomon Islands at a depth of 30.8 km."

"...but I do believe the world will soon experience a major shock event that will be followed by a shadow occurrence- and then the fear will become so palatable that it will vaporize dubious discussions to the contrary."

No, there doesn't appear to be a correlation. But I believe it was still a worthwhile exercise. It rules out flares as potential concern for earthquake activity. Thank you for doing that Muzzy.

Muzzy, don't get me started on day vets...they're almost as bad as Ken Ring, methinks.

I work with this guy (Dr Quigley) and while some may say it is a form of nepotism, I have never observed anything but professional behaviour from this fellow. He is interested in understanding - and spreading the understanding - of active tectonics. He is not a 'cover-up agent' or any such thing as far as I can tell and really, I would trust him implicitly. He certainly ISN'T a Ken Ring-type fellow, and prefers data and facts and real Science to faierie-tale, and isn't unaware of the moon hypothesis. No seismoligist worth their weight is unaware of the contentions of the 'moon crowd'. They just know that the data doesn't stack up.


If there is disagreement to the above, please be specific and I will attempt to follow these up personally.

Just a 4.3 no cause for alarm.
