The Carbon Cycle.






The Carbon Cycle is a processes through which all of the carbon atoms in existence rotate. The same carbon atoms in your body today have been used in countless other molecules since time began. Its also the cycle of nuclear transformations in the interiors of the stars by means of which hydrogen is gradually converted into helium with the release of nuclear energy

NorthRidge Earthquakes




The Northridge earthquake happened at 4:30 a.m. local time on January 17, 1994. Northridge is found about 30 km northwest of Los Angeles. This earthquake had a 6.9 moment magnitude. The hypocentral depth was 19 km. The duration was about 10 seconds to 20 seconds. The earthquake occurred along a "blind" thrust fault, close to the San Andreas fault. Note that a blind fault is a fault which does not extend to the surface. In other words, it is buried.

CA Earthquake Hazard



Earthquake shaking hazards are calculated by projecting earthquake rates based on earthquake history and fault slip rates the same data used for calculating earthquake probabilities. New fault parameters have been developed for these calculations and are included in the report of the 2007 Working Group on California Earthquake Probabilities.

Seismic Waves



Seismic Waves are waves of energy that travel through the earth, for example as a result of an earthquake, explosion, or some other process that imparts low-frequency acoustic energy.  Many other natural and anthropogenic sources create low amplitude waves commonly referred to as ambient vibrations.
