quote:Earthquake swarm hits Salton Sea area
More than 100 small earthquakes — including three of a magnitude greater than 4 — struck the Salton Sea area Monday.
According to the U.S. Geological Survey, the swarm of quakes started early Monday morning and continued into the evening. Quakes measuring 4.3 and 4.2 magnitude occurred Monday night.
Many of the quakes were centered near Bombay Beach. They were felt in a relatively small area around the Salton Sea, according to the USGS.
Swarms of small to moderate earthquakes are fairly common in the area. In 2009, the Salton Sea saw a swarm of more than 200 small quakes.
The sea sits atop a very thin crust that is being constantly stretched as the North American and Pacific plates grind against each other. The area is also veined by dozens of faults — most notably the San Andreeas -- that run parallel to and crisscross one another.
Small quakes strike Salton Sea area
Scientists believe that because of the thinness of the crust, hotter material can get closer to the surface and cause temblors.
Seismologist Lucy Jones said on Twitter on Monday night that magnitude 4 quakes near the San Andreas “increase the chance” of a big quake “a little bit. But we have swarms without big [earthquakes] — most likely nothing more will happen.”

Is California going to experience a massive earthquake this week?
Probably not.
But judging from my Facebook feed over the last couple of days, plenty of people are worried. Warnings have gone out that there's a heightened risk of a major quake on the San Andreas fault due to an earthquake swarm near the Salton Sea. And yes, that swarm has changed forecasts a bit. Let me have John Vidale of the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network explain it:
In the Salton Sea, the earthquake swarm last week changed the odds of an earthquake of at least M7 on the San Andreas fault to between 1 in 3000 and 1 in a 100 for the following week.
That's all the spate of news stories means. No new discoveries, but there is a new willingness to tell the public of small changes in the odds of earthquakes, and new methodologies to be somewhat specific in the size of the probabilities.
In the terminology that seismologists use, this is forecasting - estimating the rate of earthquakes, not predicting - which is guessing when, where, and how big will be an upcoming quake. Also, forecasts tend to be longer odds, while if one says an earthquake is definitely going to happen, we consider it more of a prediction, even if the location is vague.
As my friend Garry Hayes, who teaches geology at Modesto Junior College, puts it:
Swarms happen all the time, and many don't lead to more activity. But on rare occasions they do lead to larger quakes. How to respond? Panic? Of course not. But it's like checking your fire alarms on daylight savings: check and see if you are ready for a large earthquake. Do you have water, food, first aid kit? Do you have a family plan for if you are separated? Review the risks and expectations of a large earthquake, and educate yourself. And most important of all: don't believe inflammatory internet headlines.
So. Here's what you need to do to prepare if you're in earthquake country. And if you're in California, head on over to the Great California ShakeOut's website to learn more about California's specific risks, and steps to take that are specific to California.

quote:Two Dangerous Fault Lines Under San Francisco Are Connected, Study Finds
The looming threat of earthquakes is nothing new for Californians. But a new discovery in the heart of the San Francisco bay has upped the risk of a historically disastrous quake.
A team of geologists led by Janet Watt at the United States Geological Survey just made the unfortunate discovery underneath the murky waters of the San Francisco Bay: a hidden connection between two earthquake fault zones. The scientists outline their discovery today in the journal Science Advances.
