Re: Research Results - Earthquakes Not Influenced By Tides |
Hi Kiddo. Duncan Agnew who has a B.S. Astronomy helped John Vidale do the study on the sun and moon bit has an area of his own that he is very active in. This is an area Canie may be interested in. Take Care…Cowboy The deformation of the crust is what drives the earthquake cycle, but this deformation is (except at the time of earthquakes) so gradual as to be very difficult to measure. Together with Frank Wyatt, I have for some time been studying how best to make such measurements, and what the best ones mean. Most of the data come from Piñon Flat Observatory (PFO), at which there is a unique collection of precise instruments for measuring crustal motion and other geophysical quantities. We have recently added another instrument (a long-base laser strainmeter) at Durmid Hill, just off the southern end of the San Andreas Fault (the section which is, by general consent, closest to failure). Some recent results from these instruments include: Follow Ups: ● Re: Research Results - Earthquakes Not Influenced By Tides - John Vidale 10:40:23 - 2/6/2003 (17976) (3) ● compliant faults - John Vidale 14:35:22 - 2/16/2003 (18041) (0) ● Re: Research Results - Earthquakes Not Influenced By Tides - Petra Challus 19:02:56 - 2/6/2003 (17985) (1) ● AGU regular since 1980's - John Vidale 20:41:53 - 2/6/2003 (17990) (1) ● Fault Testing Question - Petra Challus 21:33:04 - 2/6/2003 (17991) (1) ● soft faults - John Vidale 21:45:14 - 2/6/2003 (17992) (1) ● Re: soft faults - Don in Hollister 08:31:59 - 2/7/2003 (17997) (1) ● Soft-link faults? - John Vidale 09:11:56 - 2/7/2003 (17998) (1) ● Re: Soft-link faults? - Don in Hollister 10:00:29 - 2/7/2003 (18000) (1) ● Re: Soft-link faults? - Don in Hollister 10:08:39 - 2/7/2003 (18001) (0) ● Re: Research Results - Earthquakes Not Influenced By Tides - Don in Hollister 12:24:19 - 2/6/2003 (17983) (0) |
