*UPDATE* Jim Berkland (Geologist), W Coast Quake window starts March 19 2011 *ATS Experiment Added*

reply to post by JohnnyAnonymous


Thanks for posting the global quake map link JA - I see from posts today that California and Alaska are having a heap of smaller quakes, but is there anyone on the board who can take a look at the quake map below (hopefully it'll come thru) and have a look see down here by New Zealand and comment on whether it's looking a bit busy? I don't recall seeing so many quakes on the map here at one time. For some reason Christchurch's 5.1 today hasn't been added to the map (being shallow, it caused more damage to several buildings). Thanks in advance.

Not that I want that to happen either.

15 minutes of fame isn't worth much to a scientist. I feel that he must have been truly concerned to sacrifice his reputation by going on Fox News to announce his predictions.

Hmmmm, just maybe he's not "sacrificing" his reputation. Here's a snippet from a very interesting different perspective that just may open your eyes a bit wider. Understand the enemy and his ultimate game plan.

This could well be THE MOST IMPORTANT POST that I, A. True Ott, PhD, have ever issued to my friends in cyberspace. I submit the Christian world is in for a veritable “perfect storm” of evil and chaos very soon – and thereby America’s spirituality and charity will be tried and tested as never before. I declare that events similar to the destruction of Japan may hit America’s Pacific Coast very likely within in the next 6 days (March 19-25, 2011). (I am NOT a “prophet” folks. I am only seeing a clear pattern emerging, and thus am giving a warning.)

Terror alerts have been raised by FEMA in the past month, and this new special order of dehydrated food, at the magnitude of $1 Billion dollars in taxpayer money, should be a call for everyone to prepare on your own for any potential crisis.

Watching the USGS website and noticed we are not having very many quakes above the 2.5 mag today.
Very quiet compared to the past week.

Look at these stats for the same time period.


Today March 21, 2011 7 quakes by 9am utc
Yesterday March 20, 2011 26 quakes by 9am utc
March 19, 2011 24 quakes by 9am utc
March 18, 2011 17 quakes by 9am utc
March 17, 2011 27 quakes by 9am utc

Very quite today so far. Is this an indication something is building?

Hope not.

isnt predicting a 3.5+ quake in at least one of several quake hotspots over a week long period a pretty "safe" prediction to say the least? Id like to see how often a week even goes by where a quake fiting the extremely broad criteria listed in the OP DOESNT happen... Anyone thought of checking on that data before even thinking about giving this guy a hit or miss on a prediction? A 3.5 quake is hardly newsworthy and definitely not something worth stirring people up with predictions over.
I predict there will be rain in new york or maine in the next week, zzz

I predict my cat will poop within the next 48 hours.

On topic: I, too, find predicting a 3.5 - 7.0 somewhere, and a 7.0 in "The ring of fire" ( Which spans half of this planet ) a bit vague, dear Professor.

I'm seeing the same thing. Usually the US has had at least 4 earthquakes between AK and CA that are of a 3.0M or higher and we have had 0 today and we are 16:00 UTC. Yesterday we only had 3 before 16:00 UTC. Interesting.

reply to post by H1ght3chHippie

(1) 3.5 - 7.0M within 140 miles of Mt. Diablo
(2) 3.5 - 7.0M within 140 miles of Los Angeles.
(3) 3.5 - 7.0M with an epicenter located in Washington or Oregon.
(4) 7.0 + M major quake globally, probably in the Pacific Ring of Fire.

1) There has been an average of 4 such quakes a month since 1973
2) There has been an average of 3 such quakes a month since 1973
3) There has been an average of .75 such quakes a month since 1973
4) There have been an average of 0.7 such quakes a month since 1973

Just a heads up, San Fernando beginning to shake a little. Quake at 11:30am this morning. small, but in the same area as a 2.5 last week. In any case, big enough to feel a slight jolt.

Hold on, more to come.

You wanted comments on earthquakes and predictions of quakes. There r several people out there using all kinds of things. I am just gonna put this out there. this one guy used a computer program and came up with March 22,2001 at 4pm. Thats all he gave. I did it alittle different;but also came up with:

March 22,2011 at 4.04am Magnitude 8.2. It will effect the Cascadia Subduction Zone.

Then I went on again and came up with this:

March 23, 2011 at 6:36pm Magnitude 8.9 all along the San Andreas Fault. Stem both up and down with the epicenter in San Bernardino.

And a third on:

March 24, 2011 Magnitude 8.9 off the coast of Janpan, effectively putting 50% of the country underwater. Balancing out the plates.

Now I'm not saying this is going to happen, I want to repeat, I AM NOT SAYING THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN. It is just a computer program. But if it does, I will believe in science and tell you the other ones on the 26th and 28th of March. God I really hope this thing is wrong.

Do you have a better link? The YouTube link you posted doesn't appear to have anything to do with any computer program such as the one you're talking about.

*Oops, my bad, never mind...



Strange... when I posted at first, your link led to a video done by a woman who appears to be a victim of Corexit spraying. Now the same link goes to a graphic representation of projected radiation leakage reaching the US from Japan, done using a program called SURFACE, which doesn't deal with earthquake prediction.
Can you please clarify where you saw this program you used?

Thankyou, thats the data I wanted to see and the first thing that shoulda been investigated in regards to this "prediction". That just goes to show you this is not really a prediction at all, as theres a very high chance of at least 1 quake meeting that criteria happening in ANY 1 week span so he basically can't be wrong, convenient. I guess thats how you keep your subscribers coming. Way to stick your neck out there jim, not.

reply to post by darkest4


I agree the predictions are incredibly vast and encompass a huge range in magnitude. Keep in mind that the difference in a 3.5 and a 7.0 is an energy release of about 2,000 times, slightly over this (per Moment Magnitude scale, not Richter scale). Obviously, a massive difference. So, it's safe to say that this prediction is wildly vague at best. It should also be noted that there are over 49,000, 3.0 to 3.9 earthquakes, annually.

That all being said, there are not the quantity of 3.5 plus magnitude earthquakes, that are very detectible by humans, in the greater Los Angeles metro area that some are claiming here. In any case, it does not strengthen the broad prediction by Mr. Berkland.

What does strengthen the prediction is the fact that Mr. Berkland is pointing to specific behavioral patters of animals, combined with tidal forecast, lunar forecast, and ground water pressure tables. IF his prediction comes true within this "seismic window", as it did during the 1989 World Series quake, then maybe we should all take a little more to his voice.

I'm certainly in contact with the people I know at the USGS in Pasadena and their word remains the same, "we still can't predict earthquakes, but be prepared". They have seen no uptick in seismic activity as a result of the Japan earthquake, however they do have a place where you can see "probability" of earthquakes. Basically calculates aftershocks of quakes and the probability of future events, (within 24-hours). Here's the link:

Okay, I got it, thanks. I wasn't aware this was a Timewave Zero calculator. Interesting stuff. It will probably be fascinating to use other historical events & blue shift them, as well as earthquakes. Thanks again!

Hi everyone, first time poster but long time browser of ATS.

The numerous predictions around a devastating quake this week have me very uneasy to say the least. I live in western washington near seattle, so hearing the possibility of such a thing is enough to keep me up tonight.

So how is it possible for computer models to generate the same date and location as Jim Berkland, as well as very prestigious reasarch institutes such as Stanford and Harvard? (link to thread)

These people have put their reputation on the line, as well as knowing that what they say could potentially cause public unrest.I dont see why Berkland (or anyone else for that matter) would make such a bold prediction, unless they felt comfortable backing up this claim with their lives.

Seems to be a lot of plane incidents on the RSOE EDIS Emergency Map tonight.

Never noticed this before.. perhaps they just ??? Never saw this occur since I have been following 3/11/11.

Perhaps there is a pattern here with the airplane incidents and where they are located?
