chapter 3. useful information for the media Community-based EARTHQUAKE Preparedness Earthquakes are sudden, rapid vibrations of the earth caused by sudden rapture and shifting of rock beneath the Earth’s surface. The vibrations of the earth can range from barely noticeable to catastrophically destructive. There are three classes of earthquakes that are now recognized: tectonic, volcanic and artifi cially produced. Tectonic quakes are, by far, the most common, devastating and most diffi cult to predict. They are caused by stresses set up by movements of a dozen or so huge plates that form the Earth’s crust. Most earthquakes occur at the boundaries of these plates, where two plates slide over, under and collide against each other. Some earthquakes do occur in the middle of plates. Volcanic quakes are seldom very large or destructive. They often precede or accompany volcanic eruptions. Artifi cially produced earthquakes are earthquakes induced by activities such as the fi lling of new reservoirs or the pumping of fl uids deep into the earth through wells. This type of earthquakes can be noticeable but are hardly destructive. Why is There a Need To Know About Earthquakes? Earthquakes strike without warning. They may occur at any time of the day or night. Each year, 70 to 75 damaging earthquakes occur throughout the world. In Asia during the past decade, several strong earthquakes have occurred. The following are some of them: 8 October 2005 - A deadly earthquake occurred in Kashmir killing more than 90,000 people. 26 January 2001 - An earthquake occurred in a western state of India, centering in the town of Bhuj in Gujarat, an industrial and agricultural state, which killed over 10,000 people. 21 September 1999 - More than 2,400 people were killed in the strongest Taiwanese earthquake in more than a decade. The earthquake hit Taiwan in the middle of the night. 89
