For example, a fault outside of Kalamazoo was revealed after a 4.2-magnitude earthquake in 2015 — the state's largest since a 4.6-magnitude quake along the same fault in Coldwater in 1947.
The red dots show larger-magnitude earthquakes in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan's Upper Peninsula and southern Ontario. The earthquake near Minnesota's western "bulge" is the Morris earthquake. This map and table shows where Minnesota's earthquakes have occurred. Earthquakes 1, 6, 9, 11, 15 and 18 are in the Great Lakes tectonic zone.
An earthquake is the shaking of the surface of Earth resulting from a sudden release of energy in the lithosphere that creates seismic waves.Earthquakes may also be referred to as quakes, tremors, or temblors.
It brightened the night in an instant: a brilliant burst of light streaking across the sky captured on footage across part of the state.
Research on the origin of seismic noise [1] indicates that the low frequency part of the spectrum (below 1 Hz) is principally due to natural causes, chiefly ocean waves.In particular the globally observed peak between 0.1 and 0.3 Hz is clearly associated with the interaction of water waves of nearly equal frequencies but probating in opposing directions.

Cochran's early research was on the impact of the 1999 Hector Mine earthquake. [4] [5] Her subsequent work examined the geographic extent of earthquake damage, [6] and defined the factors that lead to the 2011 Oklahoma earthquake. [7] In 2006, Cochran co-foundered of Quake-Catcher Network, a crowd-sourced program that detects earthquakes. [2]
Within the state of Michigan, the PCMB has been a state champion 25 times, an honor shared with no other groups in Michigan, (both Fine Arts and Athletics), and only with one other group in the country: the Marian Catholic High School Marching Band. Upon entering the Bands of America in 1986, Plymouth-Canton has been a National Finalist (Top 12 ...
