Really was not expecting to hear the name #Shimanto (AKA #KochiPrefecture) in a lecture about the #Cascadia / #JuanDeFuca fault.

The Shimanto Mountains were mentioned as an analog of our own #OlympicMountains - both are non-volcanic, near a #megathrust #SubductionZone (#NankaiTrough for Japan: major #earthquake every 100-200 years), and contain remnants of paleomegathrust (new fave word) fault lines thanks to historic and ongoing subduction.

As terrifying as it can be, I love #geology so much.

"Warm liquid spewing from #Oregon seafloor comes from #CascadiaFault, could offer clues to #earthquake hazards

"...hence increases the friction between the oceanic and #continental #plates.

“The #megathrust fault zone is like an air hockey table,” ...“If the fluid pressure is high, it’s like the air is turned on, meaning there’s less friction and the two #plates..."

Work at the #PebbleHill #reservoir began in the fall of 2021 to prepare for #NaturalDisasters in the future.
Metro #Vancouver has been steadily #upgrading its reservoirs since the '90s to ensure it can provide #water to the region following the "#BigOne " — a #megathrust #earthquake expected to hit the #BCcoast someday.

I am totally astounded by what I read when I compare these two texts: Maria Graham's description of the coastal #uplift due to the 1822 #Valparaiso #earthquake, versus Charles Darwin's text on very similar phenomena related to the 1835 #Concepción earthquake.

Read carefully, paying attention to the expressions used. It's like if #Darwin borrowed Maria Graham's words, but also her interpretation about the accumulation of earthquakes raising the coast on the long term. 🤔
Any comment ?

Both 1822 and 1835 earthquakes happened in Central #Chile on the #subduction #megathrust between Nazca and South America #tectonic_plates. Darwin's description, based on Fitz Roy (Beagle's captain) observations, is considered as seminal.

Thanks @haq for pointing me to the work by Maria Graham.

This recalls that even in contexts like #Java or #Sumatra, where the #subduction #megathrust may produce very big #earthquakes, much smaller shallow crustal ruptures may present significant hazards because closer to towns.
2/2

Today’s M6.9 shallow #megathrust #earthquake (approximate location as purple blob) in the context of the #rupture areas of (numerous) previous #subduction events near #Sumatra on a map from Putra et al. (2016)

A magnitude Mw6.9 #earthquake offshore south-central #Sumatra.

Mechanism and location suggest rupture on the shallow part of the #subduction #megathrust close to the trench (on the very shallow dipping fault plane). However, modelled depth of ~19km, if true, seems little too deep given the closeness with the trench (USGS gives same depth and mechanism). This means that we cannot exclude a rupture on the steep fault plane within the oceanic plate.
