Are the Earthquakes, Cyclones and Volcanoes that are occurring giving clue that some larger catastrophe is coming?

Conspiracies from HAARP, EISCAT, CERN’s LHC and other man-made experiments offer a plausible explanation, but certainly not a definitive one for the cause and frequency of the recent rash of disasters. 

Is Mother Nature having growing pains with theories of Tectonic Shifts, Continental Drift, the sea floor spreading;  maybe a theory of global expansion?  

Professor of Geophysics at the Nevada Seismological Laboratory, John N. Louie, Ph.D teaches, “The plates consist of an outer layer of the Earth, the lithosphere, which is cool enough to behave as a more or less rigid shell. Occasionally the hot asthenosphere of the Earth finds a weak place in the lithosphere to rise buoyantly as a plume, or hotspot.  “Only the lithosphere has the strength and the brittle behavior to fracture in an  earthquake.” http://www.seismo.unr.edu/ftp/pub/louie/class/100/plate-tectonics.html

Dr. J. Louie said, “occasionally,” yet there are daily reports of disasters from the four corners of the earth and a whole lot of places in between- most with no commonality to geography.  Some of the quakes are near tectonic plates, but not all.

Look how far apart these large magnitude quakes have occurred!  It’s a heck of a long way from Haiti, to Chile, to Mexico to China, to Spain via  http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww/Quakes/quakes_all.php: A few recent examples –

The recent earthquakes have many people feeling earthquake anxiety and wondering if they are foretelling “The Big One” in the United States, which geologists say is inevitable.

But the U.S. Geological Survey insists the number of major quakes occurring has not increased in frequency, yet people continue to be unusually concerned.  There is a widespread perception that something unusual is going on – a pervasive level of anxiety regarding the stability of the earth under our feet – something we normally take for granted. http://news.gather.com/viewArticle.action?articleId=281474978171654

Is it just pure randomness?  “In the last few years, scientists have found a new source of randomness that cannot be produced by a computer program. This is called algorithmic randomness and it is the gold standard when it comes to the absence of order.” http://www.technologyreview.com/blog/arxiv/25041/

There certainly is an absence of order on planet Earth!  There are often earthquake swarms where following one large quake, additional quakes occur as illustrated here http://fromtheold.com/news/earthquakes-today-chile-earthquake-swarm-continues-russia-and-new-guinea-has-few-earthquakes-20; they do not normally occur all over the earth.

Now we are witnessing volcanic swarms!  Thirty years ago, At 8:32 Sunday morning, May 18, 1980, Mount St. Helen’s erupted. Shaken by an earthquake measuring 5.1 on the Richter scale, the north face of this tall symmetrical mountain collapsed in a massive rock debris avalanche. Nearly 230 square miles of forest was blown down or buried beneath volcanic deposits… http://www.fs.fed.us/gpnf/mshnvm/

Ironically, there in an argument over funding for its National Monument Designation.  http://www.columbian.com/news/2010/apr/14/no-national-park-for-mount-st-helens-yet/

Now we see,

 ” A swarm of small earthquakes began Monday at a volcano near Anchorage in what scientists said was a warning that Mount Redoubt could be waking from its slumber. “It is reminding us that it is an active volcano.” said Rick Wessels, a geophysicist with the U.S. Geological Survey in Anchorage. 

Wessels said the current earthquakes were not connected to Sunday’s magnitude-7.2 quake in Mexico just south of the U.S. border. 

“We wouldn’t expect there to be any connection given the distances,” he said. http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5j8VGiRVV36COvlIWeZk4NOj06C2wD9ET7N300

We wouldn’t expect a connection?  Except, maybe there is a connection.

Thousands of miles away:

An Icelandic volcano, dormant for 200 years, has erupted, ripping a 1km-long fissure in a field of ice.  The volcano near Eyjafjallajoekull glacier began to erupt just after midnight, sending lava a hundred metres high.  http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8578576.stm

Eyjafjallajokull, the Icelandic volcano that has continued to belch lava, ash and steam since first erupting last weekend, isn’t the direct problem. It’s Katla, the noisier neighbor, that’s the concern. If lava flowing from Eyjafjallajokull melts the glaciers that hold down the top of Katla, then Katla could blow its top, pumping gigantic amounts of ash into the atmosphere.

Air Travel Grounded due to Volcanic Ash

Scientists say history has proven that whenever the Eyjafjallajokull volcano erupts, Katla always follows — the only question is how soon

“When volcanic ash reaches the stratosphere, it remains for a long time,” reports Hufford. “The ash becomes a very effective block of the incoming solar radiation, thus cooling the atmosphere’s temperatures.”  http://content.usatoday.com/communities/sciencefair/post/2010/03/global-cooling-what-happens-if-the-iceland-volcano-blows/1

The Batu Tara volcano off Indonesia isn’t sleeping soundly either with the Darwin Volcanic Ash Advisory Center (VAAC) showing an ash plume rising 7,000 ft on April 5 and spreading a plume more than 35km.  

USGS offers these updates from around the world:

New Activity/Unrest: | Egon, Flores Island (Indonesia) | Etna, Sicily (Italy) | Eyjafjöll, Southern Iceland | Gaua, Banks Islands (SW Pacific) | Miyake-jima, Izu Islands (Japan) | Redoubt, Southwestern Alaska | Reventador, Ecuador
Ongoing Activity: | Arenal, Costa Rica | Batu Tara, Komba Island (Indonesia) | Dukono, Halmahera | Karymsky, Eastern Kamchatka | Kilauea, Hawaii (USA) | Kliuchevskoi, Central Kamchatka (Russia) | Popocatépetl, México | Rabaul, New Britain | Sakura-jima, Kyushu | Shiveluch, Central Kamchatka (Russia) | Soufrière Hills, Montserrat.  Updates can be found at http://www.volcano.si.edu/reports/usgs/index.cfm?wvarweek=20100407#etna

All that ash is another black mark for global warming.  Perhaps it can be washed clean with water from cyclones or hurricanes?

CALCUTTA, India (AP) — Disaster officials in India say there was no warning issued by forecasters before a cyclone struck overnight in a northeastern region. The storm’s winds topped 100 miles per hour and demolished thousands of mud homes across two states. http://www.wlos.com/template/inews_wire/wires.international/3f9eb90d-www.wlos.com.shtml

"NOAA understands and predicts changes in the Earth’s environment, from the depths of the ocean to the surface of the sun, and conserves and manages our coastal and marine resources."

NO WARNING? Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, there are buoys everywhere to set off alarm bells.  The Cyclone is one  the most famous attraction in all of Coney Island and one of the most famous roller coasters in the world, (http://www.coneyislandcyclone.com/)  Those who died and lost their homes got taken for a ride alright, especially with NOAA claiming to predict weather related disaster.

West Bengal is located at approximately, Latitude : 23° 00′ N  Longitude : 87° 00′ E.  The closet data buoy is hundreds of miles away at Station 23101
National Institute for Ocean Technology
Location:
14N 83.3E
http://www.ndbc.noaa.gov/station_page.php?station=23101  It is apparently out of order.  Could it have predicted the coming cyclone to give warning? It was supposed to. 

 
 
 

Relative Intensities of NOAA POES Energetic Particles

Perhaps it is the Earth’s bombardment of Energetic Particles or Space Weather causing an abundance of earthquakes, volcanoes and cyclones all on one day.

Coincidences or not, the Earth is ticked off.  I wonder when CERN powers down if the Earth will settle down as well. 

Stay tuned.

Chile and Japan have reported massive earthquakes at 8.8 and 7.0 Magnitudes, respectively in the last 24 hours. http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/recenteqsww/Quakes/quakes_big.php  

We pondered the cause and connection of the recent devastating Haiti earthquake between the AREBICO observatory and array in nearby Puerto Rico http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arecibo_Observatory  and what HAARP and EISCAT were doing in this post at https://ahrcanum.wordpress.com/2010/01/14/haiti-earthquake-conspiracy-haarp-eiscat/.  

Chile and Japan are both home to huge observatories.  We wonder again if science gone has gone mad -created an accident by intention or otherwise, if governments are manipulating political influence, or if it is the earth’s tectonics naturally shifting that have caused two incredible large earthquakes.  

  

Chile is home to the Llano de Chajnantor Observatory including the Atacama Large Millimeter Array- ALMA.  It is the largest and most sensitive instrument in the world at millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths.   Other antennas there include:   

CBI microwave
ASTE submillimeter
APEX submillimeter
NANTEN2 millimeter-submillimeter
ACT microwave
QUIET microwave
TAO optical-infrared
ALMA millimeter-submillimeter

ALMA is an international partnership of Europe, North America and East Asia, and is the largest astronomical project in existence.  ALMA is a fusion of ideas, with its roots in three astronomical projects: the Millimeter Array (MMA) of the United States, the Large Southern Array (LSA) of Europe, and the Large Millimeter Array (LMA) of Japan. according to WIKI.  

Could any of these have the potential to create some sort of wave generation power to create an earthquake?  

On the other side of the world is Japan’s National Astronomical Observatory Japan who issued this press release recently:  

Three antennas working in unison open new bright year for revolutionary observatory.  

The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) has passed a key milestone crucial for the high-quality images that will be the trademark of this revolutionary new tool for astronomy. Astronomers and engineers have, for the first time, successfully linked three of the observatory’s antennas at the 5000-meter elevation observing site in northern Chile. Having three antennas observing in unison provides the missing link to correct errors that arise when only two antennas are used, thus paving the way for precise images of the cool Universe at unprecedented resolution. http://www.nao.ac.jp/E/index.html  

While not expected to be completely operational until 2012, this January only weeks before the Haiti quake and now two huge quakes in Chile and Japan- three antennas have gone online.  Are they sending and receiving waves?  

VERA(VLBI Exploration of Radio Astrometry) Ishigakijima station, Okinawa, Japan. National Astronomical Observatory of Japan. Shisa is on the gate.

Close to the epicenter of the Japan Quake at 25.902 latitude and 128.417 longitude, at precisely  24°24′43.834″N 124°10′15.578″E / 24.41217611°N 124.17099389°E / 24.41217611; 124.17099389 is the VERA 20m radio telescopes in Ishigakijima, Japan.  Coincidence?  

From our friends in Tokyo, Japan is the induction magnetometer installed at the HAARP site in Alaska.  It is  designed to detect temporal variations of the geomagnetic field.  The following illustrates the 36 hour time period surrounding the earthquakes.

No audio of the waveform has been made available.  

Ionospheric absorption Feb 25-27, 2010

Current geophysical data is available from more scientific instruments at HAARP  http://www.haarp.alaska.edu/haarp/data.html .   

What motivations would a country have to aim a Tesla like earthquake weapon, if one exists at all?   

The website “Not Another Conspiracy,” http://www.notanotherconspiracy.com/2010/02/japan-earthquake-relations-with-iran.html points out the political connection that Tokyo made an offer to construct five nuclear power plants for Tehran.  Most of the world is against Iran having any sort of access to Uranium for any use. We point out that Japan is now the U.S.’s largest holder of Treasury debt.  America bombs them and they own us. Humph.  

Last week, “Chile’s former Labor and Social Security Minister demystifies the U.S.’s $100 trillion unfunded benefits problem. Since Pinera is the man who many years ago privatized Chile’s entitlement system, America, and the entire Western system, which for the past century has been relying on unfunded liabilities to provide benefits to the population in the hopes that funding day will never come, may do well to listen to what he has to say. His message: the American way of life, more so than anything else, in which reckless spending, living on credit and not saving for the future, is precisely why the US will be bankrupt very soon. via http://www.zerohedge.com/article/100-trillion-problem-can-america-learn-chile-its-too-late  

“So this big hole is not only a problem in America, it’s exactly the same problem in Greece today, in Southern Europe, in France, in Germany. The west will go bankrupt unless you reform deeply the entitlement state. You are all prisoners of the Bismark unfunded entitlement system…  

Is this “big hole,”  and yet another seismic catastrophe just the opportunity for a New World Order and loss of American sovereignty as some have suggested?  

Alas, back to the quakes- there is no dispute that Japan sits above 4 tectonic plates. These are the North American, the Eurasian, the Philippine Sea Plate and the Pacific Plate, often referred to as the Niigata-Kobe Tectonic Zone(NKTZ). http://cais.gsi.go.jp/Virtual_GSI/Tectonics/Niigata_Kobe/niigata_kobe.html   

And, from Nat Geo via,  http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2010/02/100227-tsunami-warning-for-hawaii-after-huge-chile-earthquake/ Chili’s earthquake occurred along the junction of the Nazca and South American tectonic plates, which are colliding off the coast of Chile at a rate of 80 millimeters per year….one of the most active tectonic zones in the world.  

Long and short Chile, and Japan sit on active tectonic plates and both have considerable observatories to monitor whatever you can imagine, and perhaps create whatever you can imagine.  What is not an imagination is that fact is that a tsunami alert went out hours before the first waves, described by Nat Geo as, “traveling at the speed of a passenger jetliner and were expected to hit Hawaii at 11:19 this morning, local time.”  

ABC news added that,” The Pacific Tsunami Warning Center also issued a tsunami advisory for the coast of California and an Alaskan coastal area from Kodiak to Attu islands. http://www.pompom.in/2010/02/hawaii-reels-under-tsunami-warning/  

Alaska,yes.  http://www.tsuru-bird.net/attu/ for some interesting photos, maps and hitsory of the Attu Islands. 

We wonder could this tsunami generate a cleansing of- , “A “national sacrifice zone” is unofficial military designation these days for tracts of land polluted beyond any possible future use. The same words have historically been used to describe areas of Alaska devoted to national security projects. http://www.mapcruzin.com/news/bush072901a.htm.  

Tomorrow will tell what academic data HAARP produces….  Stay tuned.
