THANKS much for the El Hierro link in your signature.

It's full of interesting information

I'm very keenly interested in your current interpretation of all that data. Have you already given it here on a page I've missed? or would you be willing to give it, please?

Strong quake hits off Indonesia's Bali - Agence France-Presse
AFP News – 20 minutes ago

sg.news.yahoo.com/strong-quake-hits-off-indonesias-bali-190352269.html

A strong 6.4-magnitude earthquake struck off the Indonesian resort island of Bali early on Tuesday, but there was no tsunami warning and no immediate reports of damage or injuries.

The quake's epicentre was at a shallow depth of eight kilometres (five miles), the US Geological Survey said, putting it 278 kilometres south of Denpasar, on Bali. The quake hit at 2:23 am (1823 GMT Monday).

Indonesia sits on the Pacific "Ring of Fire" where continental plates collide, causing frequent seismic and volcanic activity.

Hi BO I will have to come back to you on that tomorrow as I have rather a lot on at present, but no you have not missed something.

Strong earthquake hits eastern Java and Bali, but no tsunami warning issued

By The Associated Press September 3, 2012 1:20 PM

www.vancouversun.com/news/world/Strong+earthquake+hits+eastern+Java+Bali+tsunami+warning+issued/7183274/story.html

JAKARTA, Indonesia - A magnitude 6.5 earthquake has hit parts of Java island and the tourist resort of Bali, but there are no immediate reports of damages or casualties.

Indonesia's Meteorology and Geophysics Agency said the eartquake that struck at 1:23 a.m. Tuesday (1823 GMT Monday) was centred beneath the Indian Ocean, but has no potential to trigger tsunami.

It was centred about 300 kilometre (180 miles) southwest of Banyuangi town on the eastern end of Java, with a depth of 10 kilometres (6 miles).

Setio Aji, an agency's official said the earthquake was strongly felt in Bali, while residents in some East Java cities told El Shinta radio they were awakened by the tremor.

I don't like the looks of this region....I don't like it one bit!


I feel something bigger brewing...

I would agree and Anak Krakatoa has upped her anti. Well, I guess it's worrying when you look at it on 'paper'.

Ahhhhhh there you all are
For some obscure reason (probably a new advertiser) the link I had to ATS Quake Watch failed to work for a few days, all I could get was a bunch of Topics on Fragile Earth and I couldn't find the QW page anywhere,it is usually pinned to the top of the Fragile Earth Thread
I had to ask the Boss

Anyway, we have discussed the Global CMT project and how theirs is the final "solution" when it comes to magnitude.
However I have noticed (only looked on the last two mag7's) that their locations seem to be a bit off all the other Networks.
It seems LDEO was off with the Magnitudes, now GCMT off with the locations

have a look and see what I mean

El Salvador
Philippines

my conclusion has to be that there is NOTHING certain about ANY of this, the best estimates may be within +/-20km of the actual epi-centre, even if there is a rupture in the ground to see.

Hey Muzzy, glad to know that we hadn't completely lost you!

I thought every Internet user knew this, but obviously one should never assume things...there
s a thing called BOOKMARKS that every browser has, that makes it EASY to save and return to your favourite pages...suggest you find it and start using

Oh come on, admit it. You wanted a vacation from talking about earthquakes. You got sidetracked searching for the thread but didn't really mind.

I've been having the same issue since Friday. So frustrating! The pinned threads are missing, unless I log in. I was not happy that I couldn't find Quake Watch 2012.

I think there must be a coding error in conjunction with the unpartial.com ads, because all of the graphics load fine, except the ads for that website that are located inbetween posts. Just a red x placeholder for those.

I hope they can straighten this glitch out.

reply to post by SpaceJockey1


Thats what Iw as saying,the Bookmark/Favourite/Speed Dial link went somewhere new that was usless.
ATS is terrible to find stuff in, have you evry tried to search for something in particular? very frustrating.
In fact so frustrating I didnt even attempt to search using the phrase "Quake Watch 2012 last page", which is where Puterman pointed me in the end.

Anybody care to take on a Midwest N. America question?

I don't think Antonia felt a 2.6 3 hours away, but I could be wrong.

reply to post by Olivine

I'm glad it wasn't just me, but it would be better if none of us had this hassle.
2nd time it has happened, same reason.
They should get someone who knows what they are doing to load AND TEST these stupid adverts before they put it on the live page.
I find it big turn off when something interrupts my routine, and to be honest the last thing I'd do after being upset is to go and look at what unpartial.com have to say, so they failed miserably in their objective

I did miss ATS, but didn't spend too much time trying to find the Thread, I didn't have much to say anyway.

biggest eq in the swarm thats been going on in the virgin islands since last week i believe

Further to my reply I just came across this about El Hierro on Earthquake-Report.com which probably covers most of it.

I apologise for not keeping up with this but I am very bust at present.


With regards to the promised release yesterday it did not happen. The Australian data is a nightmare. Even using machine readable data I found hidden in the web page it is full of errors. I finally had the data working last night but I need today to make sure that I have covered all possible error corrections. To be on the safe side I will say probably Saturday when it gets rolled out, but I may do it on Friday.

It is simple - this is the link to the last post I just made (with spaces so it does not format as a link)

http: / /www. abovetopsecret. com / forum / thread789176 / pg216 #pid14908235

Remove the detail from the pg to the end and replace it with lastpost

http: / /www. abovetopsecret. com / forum / thread789176 / pglastpost

That will always take you to the last post in the thread. Works for any other ATS thread of course.
