Re the earthquakes in Turkey || Feb 6, 2023
Do you know what makes my blood boil? Over 15,000 people died in 1999 in Turkey in a single earthquake - entire cities were all but razed to the ground. Do you know what destruction at that scale looks like? Do you know how long it takes to recover from it?
And the fault lines that go under this country are common knowledge, the next big earthquake was always a matter of when and not if - the next earthquake to hit Istanbul is also a when btw - and it's been 23 fucking years. Geoscientists have been banging pans and pots together warning--just for this. How are thousands of people still dying when we had 23 years to prepare? How can human life be so worthless?
And we knew, you see. My relatives in Istanbul also know - that the buildings they live in are probably not safe, that the earthquake is coming, that architects steal from construction materials and get away with it, that thousands and thousands of people would (will) die but so what? Only the very rich can afford to live in buildings that are earthquake proof and for the rest it's just the luck of the draw and this happens over and over again.
(you can rb this but please don't send me asks or messages)

actually my hottest take re: buck's love interests isn't even that i like taylor, it's that i think ali is his worst love interest by an enormous margin and i can't believe she's generally the fan favorite after tommy. taylor and abby may have been kind of bad people but ali committed the far worse tv character sin of being boring

Awed by my unparalleled genius back when i was in the bnha fandom (i do still want to fuck that old man this will never change)
#Listen to my problems#yeah i had a self insert hero name stasis and his power was telekinesis BUT the weight / impact of anything he moves with his powers gets#transferred to his body which means for every falling building he stops his ribcage will explode im kidding but he does get very injured if#he decides to do this. he can weather quite a few hits but he is only human. anyway sustained use of his power will result in crush injury#which is what earthquake victims and such get when something falls on them and pins them down for an extended period of time. and also s#suru (thats his name because his ability is to ‘lock’)#has a big big big crush on all might after he punched the shit out of him during a bank robbery (suru used to be a villain before he went to#jail for his crimes) and all might nearly killed him because suru made the mistake of locking all might who immediately tried to force his#way through it which made suru start coughing blood and screaming and crying and shoot blood from his eyeballs and mouth and nose and#despite this he still attempted to lock a piece of falling debris before it hit all might (he likes all might) so he decided to go easy on#him ....... anyway he ends up working at all might hq as a free lancer and he falls head over heels for all mights sexy secretary who he#walks home every day because they live on the same street (unfortunately for all might who doesnt like people knowing where he lives)#anyway i didnt mean to go into detail about their little love story i was expounding on my smart brain#surus story ? is named Crush Syndrome <- i will never ever come up with a better pun for anything

Omg when are you gonna finish the bottom male reader
I literally forgot I had such an account.( I'm lazy writing on the tumblr )
Not only that, I will also write the second part of my unfinished Riddle x Male reader article because it gets on my nerves when they are unfinished. (and yes I don't write though lol)
But I promise you'll get them tonight. (I don't know where he is from, but where I am now, it's 2 pm. And yes, I will post it in the evening according to my own country time. So maybe the articles may have been published for you in the morning.)
But… first I'll wait for the food I ordered to arrive because I'm hungry and although I can cook, I don't. Cuz am a lazy human :)
If I have time and love of writing surrounds me, I will also write requests in my wish box (although there is only 1 request but that's not the point..)
In short, thanks for the reminder. I don't want people to see me as forgetful or incompetent. After my food comes and eats, I'll start! I promise you.
I hope I don't forget that I made such a promise to you after I ate the food.

Study: Heavy snowfall and rain may contribute to some earthquakes
New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/study-heavy-snowfall-and-rain-may-contribute-to-some-earthquakes/
Study: Heavy snowfall and rain may contribute to some earthquakes
Tumblr media Tumblr media
When scientists look for an earthquake’s cause, their search often starts underground. As centuries of seismic studies have made clear, it’s the collision of tectonic plates and the movement of subsurface faults and fissures that primarily trigger a temblor.
But MIT scientists have now found that certain weather events may also play a role in setting off some quakes.
In a study appearing today in Science Advances, the researchers report that episodes of heavy snowfall and rain likely contributed to a swarm of earthquakes over the past several years in northern Japan. The study is the first to show that climate conditions could initiate some quakes.
“We see that snowfall and other environmental loading at the surface impacts the stress state underground, and the timing of intense precipitation events is well-correlated with the start of this earthquake swarm,” says study author William Frank, an assistant professor in MIT’s Department of Earth, Atmospheric and Planetary Sciences (EAPS). “So, climate obviously has an impact on the response of the solid earth, and part of that response is earthquakes.”
The new study focuses on a series of ongoing earthquakes in Japan’s Noto Peninsula. The team discovered that seismic activity in the region is surprisingly synchronized with certain changes in underground pressure, and that those changes are influenced by seasonal patterns of snowfall and precipitation. The scientists suspect that this new connection between quakes and climate may not be unique to Japan and could play a role in shaking up other parts of the world.
Looking to the future, they predict that the climate’s influence on earthquakes could be more pronounced with global warming.
“If we’re going into a climate that’s changing, with more extreme precipitation events, and we expect a redistribution of water in the atmosphere, oceans, and continents, that will change how the Earth’s crust is loaded,” Frank adds. “That will have an impact for sure, and it’s a link we could further explore.”
The study’s lead author is former MIT research associate Qing-Yu Wang (now at Grenoble Alpes University), and also includes EAPS postdoc Xin Cui, Yang Lu of the University of Vienna, Takashi Hirose of Tohoku University, and Kazushige Obara of the University of Tokyo.
Seismic speed
Since late 2020, hundreds of small earthquakes have shaken up Japan’s Noto Peninsula — a finger of land that curves north from the country’s main island into the Sea of Japan. Unlike a typical earthquake sequence, which begins as a main shock that gives way to a series of aftershocks before dying out, Noto’s seismic activity is an “earthquake swarm” — a pattern of multiple, ongoing quakes with no obvious main shock, or seismic trigger.
The MIT team, along with their colleagues in Japan, aimed to spot any patterns in the swarm that would explain the persistent quakes. They started by looking through the Japanese Meteorological Agency’s catalog of earthquakes that provides data on seismic activity throughout the country over time. They focused on quakes in the Noto Peninsula over the last 11 years, during which the region has experienced episodic earthquake activity, including the most recent swarm.
With seismic data from the catalog, the team counted the number of seismic events that occurred in the region over time, and found that the timing of quakes prior to 2020 appeared sporadic and unrelated, compared to late 2020, when earthquakes grew more intense and clustered in time, signaling the start of the swarm, with quakes that are correlated in some way.
The scientists then looked to a second dataset of seismic measurements taken by monitoring stations over the same 11-year period. Each station continuously records any displacement, or local shaking that occurs. The shaking from one station to another can give scientists an idea of how fast a seismic wave travels between stations. This “seismic velocity” is related to the structure of the Earth through which the seismic wave is traveling. Wang used the station measurements to calculate the seismic velocity between every station in and around Noto over the last 11 years.
The researchers generated an evolving picture of seismic velocity beneath the Noto Peninsula and observed a surprising pattern: In 2020, around when the earthquake swarm is thought to have begun, changes in seismic velocity appeared to be synchronized with the seasons.
“We then had to explain why we were observing this seasonal variation,” Frank says.
Snow pressure
The team wondered whether environmental changes from season to season could influence the underlying structure of the Earth in a way that would set off an earthquake swarm. Specifically, they looked at how seasonal precipitation would affect the underground “pore fluid pressure” — the amount of pressure that fluids in the Earth’s cracks and fissures exert within the bedrock.
“When it rains or snows, that adds weight, which increases pore pressure, which allows seismic waves to travel through slower,” Frank explains. “When all that weight is removed, through evaporation or runoff, all of a sudden, that pore pressure decreases and seismic waves are faster.”
Wang and Cui developed a hydromechanical model of the Noto Peninsula to simulate the underlying pore pressure over the last 11 years in response to seasonal changes in precipitation. They fed into the model meteorological data from this same period, including measurements of daily snow, rainfall, and sea-level changes. From their model, they were able to track changes in excess pore pressure beneath the Noto Peninsula, before and during the earthquake swarm. They then compared this timeline of evolving pore pressure with their evolving picture of seismic velocity.
“We had seismic velocity observations, and we had the model of excess pore pressure, and when we overlapped them, we saw they just fit extremely well,” Frank says.
In particular, they found that when they included snowfall data, and especially, extreme snowfall events, the fit between the model and observations was stronger than if they only considered rainfall and other events. In other words, the ongoing earthquake swarm that Noto residents have been experiencing can be explained in part by seasonal precipitation, and particularly, heavy snowfall events.
“We can see that the timing of these earthquakes lines up extremely well with multiple times where we see intense snowfall,” Frank says. “It’s well-correlated with earthquake activity. And we think there’s a physical link between the two.”
The researchers suspect that heavy snowfall and similar extreme precipitation could play a role in earthquakes elsewhere, though they emphasize that the primary trigger will always originate underground.
“When we first want to understand how earthquakes work, we look to plate tectonics, because that is and will always be the number one reason why an earthquake happens,” Frank says. “But, what are the other things that could affect when and how an earthquake happens? That’s when you start to go to second-order controlling factors, and the climate is obviously one of those.”
This research was supported, in part, by the National Science Foundation.

Taiwan Earthquake Disrupts Micron’s DRAM Supply: Impact on AI Chip Demand
Tumblr media
The most recent earthquake in Taiwan has definitely sent waves through Micron Technology’s operations, which is the greatest blow to the company’s dynamic random access memory (DRAM) supply. A company, which has a major production presence in 4 Taiwanese locations, recognized that a double-digit decline in the demand for DRAM would take place as a result of the earthquake. 
The tsunami that caught the global semiconductor supply chain by surprise has raised the question of possible interruptions due to Taiwan’s prominent position. Despite that Micron said that it had not yet began full DRAM production after the earthquake, they also stated at the same time that there is no prospect of DRAM production affecting its supply capacity in the long-run.
