FUN EARTHQUAKE FACTS

Earthquakes are powerful movement of rocks in the Earth’s crust. The fast release of energy creates seismic waves that travel through the earth.

Scientists use different speeds of seismic waves to locate the epicentre (the point on the surface directly above where the earthquake started) of earthquakes.

Seismometers measure the magnitude of earthquakes. You are unlikely to feel a magnitude 3 earthquake but a magnitude 6 earthquake could potentially cause large damage.

The earthquake that hit the Tohoku region of Japan on March 11, 2011, had a magnitude of 9.0 and killed over 15000 people.

The destruction caused by the Tohoku earthquake was made much worse by powerful tsunamis that were triggered due to the earthquake’s epicentre being located offshore.

The 2004 earthquake that occurred in the Indian Ocean near Sumatra, Indonesia triggered a series of tsunamis that killed over 200000 people in 14 countries.

An earthquake that hit Haiti in January 2010 with a magnitude of 7.0 killed over 200000 people according to Haitian sources.

The most powerful earthquake ever recorded on Earth was in Valdivia, Chile. Occurring in 1960, it had a magnitude of 9.5.

It is important in earthquake prone countries such as Japan to build houses and buildings that react well to earthquakes. Good engineering practises can help stop buildings collapsing under the stress of large earthquakes.

FUN VOLCANO FACTS

Volcanoes are openings in the Earth’s surface. Active volcanoes let ash, gas and hot magma escape in eruptions.

Volcanoes are usually located where tectonic plates meet. This is especially true for the Pacific Ring of Fire, an area around the Pacific Ocean where over 75% of the volcanoes on Earth are found.

Hot liquid rock under the Earth’s surface is magma. It is called lava after it comes out of a volcano. While we certainly have some big volcanoes here on Earth, the biggest known volcano in our solar

system is actually on Mars. Its name is Olympus Mons and it is 600km wide and 21km high. Most people think of volcanoes as large cone shaped mountains. That is just one type. Others

feature wide plateaus, fissure cracks and bulging dome shapes. There are also volcanoes found on the ocean floor and even under icecaps, for example in

Iceland. Volcanoes can be active (regular activity), dormant (recent historical activity but now quiet) or

extinct (no activity in historical times and unlikely to erupt again). Scientists describe volcanoes by characteristics such a how they formed, how they erupt and what their shape is.

Volcanic eruptions can send ash high into the air, over 30km above the Earth’s surface. Large volcanic eruptions can reflect radiation from the Sun and drop average temperatures on

Earth by around half a degree. There have been several examples of this over the last century. Pumice is a unique volcanic rock that can float in water. It can also be used as an abrasive and is

sometimes used in beauty salons for removing dry skin.

1. Where on Earth can we find the biggest number of volcanoes? 2/

2. When does magma turn to lava? 2/

3. Where is the biggest volcano that we know about?
