...Dr. Maya Tolstoy, (click title to entry - thank you) Associate Research Scientist at the Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory at Columbia University, is publishing in the June issue of the journal Geology, research showing that earthquakes coming from the Axial Volcano on the Juan de Fuca Ridge, located off the coast of Washington and Oregon, are occurring during tidal lows when the weight of the water is at a minimum. Tolstoy and her colleagues also found a tidal correlation with signals for harmonic tremors, which are thought to result from super heated water moving in the cracks....
Now, when I say something completely outrageous and bizarre, especially regarding Earth, I mean it. I will definately tell you when to laugh.
Microquakes change the lithosphere in ways that brings on larger reactions. On Earth, the air and water and land definately have a huge geophysical relationship.
No laughing.
