Why are earthquakes nudging the pole towards 140°E? / Giorgio Spada.
Title: | Why are earthquakes nudging the pole towards 140°E? / Giorgio Spada. |
Author(s): | Spada, Giorgio. |
Date: | 1997. |
In: | Geophysical Research Letters. (1997.), Vol. 24(5) (1997) |
Abstract: | Shows that collective tendency of earthquakes to displace pole of rotation of Earth in preferred direction (ca 140°E) results from combined effects of geographical distribution of hypocentres and prevailing dip-slip nature of large earthquakes in this century. |
Notes: | Geophysical Research Letters. Vol. 24(5) :539-542 (1997). |
Keywords: | 550.3 -- Geophysics. 550.34 -- Seismology. 550.341 -- Earthquakes. 521.931.1 -- Polar wandering. A -- Geophysical sciences (general). |
