Ed Lizard Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 The two tremors - magnitude 2.3 and 1.5 Ohio Snow- what is your degree in? Just curious. Have you seen the word 'logarithm' since 10th grade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okie333 Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Hmmm... let's say the fracking IS lubricating the fault lines. Then couldn't it be said that there would have been a larger earthquake later had the fault not been lubricated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoMo Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 I felt in BARTLESVILLE Heard the rumble here in Joplin, thought it was wind or thunder. No storms close enough and it wasn't wind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turtlehurricane Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 One wonders if this is part of some long term trend. Maybe some sort of liquid/gas/magna bubble pushing up? Or stress building up on those faults from an external push by other faults? From the USGS http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsus/Quakes/usb0006klz.php#summary In 2008 the rate of earthquakes began to rise, with over a dozen earthquakes occurring in the region east- northeast of Oklahoma City and southwest of Tulsa, Oklahoma. In 2009 the rate of seismicity continued to climb, with nearly 50 earthquakes recorded--many big enough to be felt. In 2010 this activity continued. The magnitude 4.7 and 5.6 earthquakes of November 5, 2011, are the largest events recorded during this period of increased seismicity. Additionally, the M5.6 quake is the largest quake to hit Oklahoma in modern times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
