Quoting Bob Dollar, a geophysicist with the U.S. Geological Survey; “This is a completely different fault system — the San Jacinto fault, it’s a very active fault."
Hi,
I have been GLUED to your website for quite a few years - I am fascinated by
your sensor data maps.
Recently, the USGS stated that the 5.4 earthquake July 7th at Borrego Springs
was NOT an aftershock of the Easter 7.2 quake.
I contend, that if you look at a time lapse animation starting July 2009 of the
Baja-California border - you will see a distinct correlation between the 6.9 on
August 3rd 2009, the 7.2 on April 4th, and the 5.4 on July 7th. There have been
MANY minor events connecting all three.
There has been a distinct ripping northward, connecting all three events (and
MANY in between) So, I am unsure why it is not called an aftershock. Must
an aftershock occur on the same fault as the earlier quake? If aftershock is
not the right word perhaps a new term like "rippleshock" is in order!
Is there anyway you can make an animation of the greater Baja-CA border area
from July 2009 to Now?
Thanks if you can put together the animation..... would LOVE to see it.
