shaken or stirred?
« on: August 26, 2008, 06:10:45 PM »
I see that seismicity was registered at 29.8km beneath Kalkan this morning at 11.46. It was 3.3 magnitude. I wonder if anyone out there at the moment felt it?

Does that constitute an earthquake?

After checking Grumpygramps link I would say yes he means an earthquake......... Why can''t you just ask if any one in Kalkan felt the earthquake this morning.

As far as I can see Tiamaria that is what was asked, followed with a qualifying remark as to why the question was asked - there was a question mark after his sentence!

Also, (and please Newballs correct me if I am wrong) Newballs only asked if 3.3 mag would be CLASSED as an earthquake.

That''s either my belly or, the new road works then, Blue Lizard. I think 3.4 would only make your toes tingle if you were walking barefoot.
I found this on wikipedia.

Richter Magnitudes Description Earthquake Effects Frequency of Occurrence
Less than 2.0 Micro Microearthquakes, not felt. About 8,000 per day
2.0-2.9 Minor Generally not felt, but recorded. About 1,000 per day
3.0-3.9 Minor Often felt, but rarely causes damage. 49,000 per year (est.)
4.0-4.9 Light Noticeable shaking of indoor items, rattling noises. Significant damage unlikely. 6,200 per year (est.)
5.0-5.9 Moderate Can cause major damage to poorly constructed buildings over small regions. At most slight damage to well-designed buildings. 800 per year
6.0-6.9 Strong Can be destructive in areas up to about 160 kilometres (100 mi) across in populated areas. 120 per year
7.0-7.9 Major Can cause serious damage over larger areas. 18 per year
8.0-8.9 Great Can cause serious damage in areas several hundred miles across. 1 per year
9.0-9.9 Great Devastation in areas several thousand miles across.
 1 per 20 years
10.0+ Epic Never recorded; Extremely rare (Unknown)
