The source of the earthquake at a depth of more than 300 km. Geological emergencies. natural fires. The main damaging factor of flooding is


Where are earthquakes born?

At the end of the 20s of our century, it was found that earthquakes sometimes occur, the sources of which are located at a depth of up to 600-700 km. For the first time they were noted in the marginal zones Pacific Ocean. With the accumulation of material, it turned out that earthquakes with a focal depth exceeding 300 km also occur in other areas. the globe. Thus, impacts with a focus depth of 250-300 km occurred in the Pamirs, in the Hindu Kush, Kuen-Lun and the Himalayas, as well as in the Malay Archipelago and in the southern part of the Atlantic Ocean.

Observations show that the sources of strong earthquakes are often shallow. So, for the years 1930-1950. The sources of 800 strong earthquakes were located at a depth of less than 100 km, 187 - at a depth of 150 km, 78 - at a depth of 250 km. During the same time period, only 26 strong earthquakes occurred with a source depth of 300 km, 25 with a depth of 450 km, 39 with a depth of 550 km, and 9 with a depth of 700 km. At the same time, it should be noted that determining the depth of earthquake sources presents even greater difficulties and is far from always unambiguous. Records of the weak

deep shocks are very difficult to detect on a seismograph and decipher.

At present, according to the depth of the source, earthquakes are divided into three groups: normal, or ordinary, with a source depth of up to 60 km; intermediate - with a focus depth of 60-300 km; deep-focus - with a focus depth of 300-700 km. However, this classification is somewhat arbitrary. The fact is that if normal and deep-focus earthquakes differ in qualitatively different phenomena occurring in earth's crust and in the Earth's mantle, then there are only purely quantitative differences between intermediate and deep-focus ones.

Therefore, it is more correct to divide earthquakes, depending on the depth of the source, only into two groups: intracrustal earthquakes, the sources of which are located in the earth's crust, and subcrustal ones, the sources of which are located in the mantle.

An earthquake is just a shaking of the ground. The waves that cause an earthquake are called seismic waves; like sound waves radiating from the gong when it is struck, seismic waves are also emitted from some source of energy somewhere in the upper layers of the Earth. Although the source of natural earthquakes occupies some volume rocks, it is often convenient to define it as the point from which seismic waves diverge. This point is called the focus (or hypocenter-Perev) of the earthquake. During natural earthquakes, of course, it is located at some depth under earth's surface. During man-made earthquakes such as underground nuclear explosions, the focus is close to the surface. The point on the earth's surface directly above the focus of an earthquake is called the epicenter of the earthquake.

How deep are the hypocenters of earthquakes in the body of the Earth? One of the first startling discoveries made by seismologists was that although many earthquakes are at shallow depths, in some areas they are hundreds of kilometers deep. Such areas include the South American Andes, the islands of Tonga, Samoa, the New Hebrides, the Sea of ​​Japan, Indonesia, the Antilles in the Caribbean (see Fig. 1); in all these areas there are deep ocean trenches. On average, the frequency of earthquakes here decreases sharply at depths of more than 200 km, but some foci even reach depths of 700 km. Earthquakes that occur at depths of 70 to 300 km are quite arbitrarily classified as intermediate, while those that occur at even deeper depths are called deep-focus. Intermediate and deep-focus earthquakes also occur far from the Pacific region: in the Hindu Kush, Romania, the Aegean Sea and under the territory of Spain.

If the location of earthquake sources occurring near island arcs is compared with their depths, an extremely interesting picture emerges. Consider the vertical section placed at the top of Fig. 3. It is built at right angles to the arc of Tonga in the South Pacific. To the east of these volcanic islands lies the Tonga trench, deep

which in some places reaches up to 10 km. The lower part of the figure shows the depths of the outbreaks projected onto a vertical plane passing through Niumate, a locality on the island of Tonga. Note that the hypocenters lie in a narrow, well-defined zone that descends from the trough under the island arc at an angle of about 45°. Below a depth of 400 km, this active zone becomes steeper, and some hypocenters are located deeper than 600 km. In other areas where deep-focus earthquakes occur, various tilt angles are noted and there are peculiarities in the location of hypocenters, but the very presence of an inclined seismic zone *) is feature island arcs. In this chapter, we will consider one of the explanations given for this simple but universal distribution of earthquake foci.

In this book, the main attention is paid to small-focus shocks, the sources of which are located directly under the earth's surface. It is small-focus earthquakes that cause the greatest destruction, and in total amount energy released worldwide during earthquakes, their contribution is 3/4. In California, for example, all earthquakes known so far have been small-focus. For Central California, it was found that the vast majority of earthquakes occur there in the uppermost horizons of the Earth, at a depth of up to 5 km, and only some hypocenters are deeper, reaching 15 km. Unfortunately, for various reasons, the depth of the earthquake source cannot be established with the same accuracy as the position of the epicenter. However, in practice, determining depth can be vital, because in a seismic region (say, in the area of ​​​​a nuclear power plant construction), stronger shaking will occur at a depth of focus of 10 km than at a depth of 40 km.

In most cases, after moderate or strong small-focus earthquakes in the same area, numerous earthquakes of lesser intensity are observed for several hours or even several months. They are called aftershocks, and their number during a really large earthquake is sometimes extremely large. After a strong earthquake on February 4, 1965 on the Rat Islands (in the archipelago of the Aleutian Islands), more than 750 aftershocks occurred over the next 24 days, and so strong that seismographs in remote places could record them. Some earthquakes are preceded by preliminary shocks from the same source area - foreshocks; it is assumed that they can be used to predict the mainshock (see Chap. 9).

Sometimes, based on the placement of foci (if their position can be determined with the required accuracy), it is possible to determine the shape and size of the area in which earthquake sources are formed. Seismological mapping of deep rock structures is an excellent addition to the conventional field methods that geologists use to map surface structures. An example of successful determination of the boundaries of one such area by small-focus local earthquakes in the Oroville region (California) is given in Fig. 3 in ch. eight.

As a result of an accident on a heating main in winter (air temperature -25 0 С) without hot water and heating, 2 residential buildings remained, in which about 100 people lived. It was not possible to eliminate the accident quickly, the houses were defrosted. It took 4 days to restore the heating system. Some of the tenants moved in with relatives, some settled in the school building, and some remained in their apartments. Material damage was caused to the property of citizens, there were no casualties.

An earthquake measuring 8.1 on the Richter scale occurred in Indian Ocean north of the island of Simelue, north of Sumatra in Indonesia, at a depth of 30 km. The tsunami caused by the earthquake was one of the strongest in history. It hit the coasts of Indonesia, Sri Lanka, South India, Thailand and some other countries and islands. The height of the waves reached 30 m. The waves took from several minutes to seven hours to reach the shores of various territories.

The United States Geological Survey has published the actual number of casualties and the extent of the damage. According to these figures, the tsunami killed 283,100 people, left 14,100 missing and another million people left homeless. In February 2005, the ocean carried 500 dead bodies ashore every day. According to estimates by non-governmental organizations, the identifications were to continue throughout 2005 and into early 2006.

The socio-economic condition of the region instantly deteriorated.

Famine and disease (cholera, typhoid and dysentery) gripped the countries. It is not unfounded to assume that another 300,000 people died in the following year after the tsunami.

According to scientific data, the main reason for such catastrophic consequences is the destruction of coral reefs by humans, the structures of coastal regions.
