5.0 Earthquake Shakes Hawaii Island, Joined By Smaller Temblors - Update

Residents across the Island of Hawaii reported feeling an earthquake around 4:36 p.m. on Sunday.

The United States Geological Survey’s Hawaiian Volcano Observatory measured a magnitude 5.0 about 4 miles south of the active Pu’u O’o crater on the Kilauea volcano’s east rift zone, within the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.

The hypocentral depth was reported to be about 5 miles deep.

There was no threat of a tsunami from the quake and no reports of damage, initially.

Residents around the island reported feeling the quake, from as far north as Hawi to as far west as Kona.

A series of smaller quakes were reported after the quake, all in the same vicinity. The largest of those to be measured was a 3.0, less than 10 minutes after the first.

The Hawaii County Civil Defense issued this statement following the quakes:

This is a Civil Defense Message. This is an earthquake informational update for Sunday, Jan. 22, 2012 at 5PM HST. The earthquake which occurred at approximately 4:38PM was not large enough to cause a tsunami for the Island or state of Hawaii. Preliminary data indicates that the earthquake measured 5.0 and was centered in the vicinity of Kaena Point, Puna. As in all earthquakes, be aware of the possibilities of after shocks. If the earthquake was strongly felt in your area, precautionary checks should be made for any damages, especially to utility connections of gas, water, and power. Again, the earthqauke which occurred at approximately 4:38PM measured 5.0 and was not strong enough to cause a tsunami for the Island or State of Hawaii. Thank you.

22 whales dead at Farewell Spit - New Zealand

http://nz.news.yahoo.com/a/-/top-stories/12698302/22-whales-dead-at-farewell-spit/

Unquote:

48 HOURS BEFORE THE MAGNITUDE 6.3 EARTHQUAKE ON 22nd FEBRUARY 2011, 100 WHALES WERE FOUND DEAD ON THE BEACH. THIS WAS A SIGN OF SOMETHING BIG AROUND THE CORNER, HENCE THE MAGNITUDE 6.3 EARTHQUAKE 48 HRS LATER.

22 DEAD WHALES FOUND DEAD...........IS THIS ANOTHER WARNING OF A BIG EARTHQUAKE IN 48 HOURS TIME?

Haiti Could Be In A New Earthquake Cycle, Scientists Say

The magnitude-7.0 earthquake that shook Port-au-Prince, Haiti, two years ago nearly demolished the city and took both residents and geologists by surprise.

Now, a team of scientists thinks they’ve identified a centuries-long pattern of earthquakes on the island of Hispaniola, which comprises both Haiti and the Dominican Republic, that could portend earthquakes to come.

Moderate Earthquakes Jolt Tokyo, No Damage Reported

Two moderate earthquakes struck near a dormant volcano in eastern Japan on early Saturday morning, seismologists said, but there were no immediate reports of damage or casualties. The quake was widely felt in the capital.

A 5.0-magnitude earthquake at 7:39 a.m. local time (2239 GMT Friday) was centered about 16.7 kilometers (10.3 miles) northwest of Yamakita, a town located in the Ashigarakami District of Kanagawa Prefecture, or about 67 kilometers (41 miles) west of Tokyo. It struck at a depth of approximately 20 kilometers (12.4 miles), according to the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA).

Just minutes later, at 7:43 a.m. local time (2243 GMT Friday), an earthquake with a magnitude of 5.5 on the Richter scale struck the same area. The earthquakes struck close to Mount Fuji, a volcano which last erupted in 1707 but is currently considered to be at a low risk of eruption.

Shaking as a result of Saturday's earthquake could be felt across Tokyo, prompting authorities to briefly halt TÅkaidÅ Shinkansen high-speed train services as a precaution. The train services resumed soon after, and there were no immediate reports of damage or casualties.

Japan sits on the so-called 'Pacific Ring of Fire', an arc of fault lines circling the Pacific Basin which is prone to frequent and large earthquakes as well as volcanic eruptions. The University of Tokyo's Earthquake Research Institute predicted earlier this month that the capital faces a 70 percent probability of experiencing a magnitude-7 quake within four years.

On March 11, 2011, an enormous 9.0-magnitude earthquake struck off the coast of northeastern Japan, generating a devastating tsunami. The earthquake and resulting tsunami left at least 15,833 people killed while 3,671 others remain missing and are feared dead..............http://channel6newsonline.com/2012/01/moderate-earthquakes-jolt-tokyo-no-damage-reported/

Active 200-km Fault Found Off Honshu's Kii Peninsula - Japan

Previous shifts caused magnitude 8.6 quake, huge tsunami: scientists

An active fault around 200 km long that is believed to have been a source of huge quakes in the past has been found off Honshu's Kii Peninsula, according to researchers at the University of Tokyo.

If the fault on the Nankai Trough moves, it could trigger a magnitude 8.0 earthquake, the researchers said, adding they have found a seabed cliff several hundred meters high that was created by the fault's past movements.

"There is a high probability that fault shifts have caused great tsunami," said Park Jin Oh, associate professor of marine geology. "We need to reformulate disaster countermeasures by taking into account an active fault on the seabed 200 km or longer."
