They are known as aftershocks.
Yes, but they are mostly small tremors. Major earthquakes happen every couple of months i guess.
Earth tremors
An earthquake is called an earthquake no matter whether it is small or large. An earth tremor is just a general term used by people to describe a small earthquake.
Most small earthquakes are just background seismicity. There is no way to tell whether a small event will be followed by a larger one. But if there is a larger earthquake afterwards, the first earthquake is called a "foreshock"
A small earthquake that happens after a larger one is called an aftershock. Aftershocks happen because the crust in the area where the main earthquake happened is adjusting to the earthquake's effects.
An earthquake is caused by 'plates' in the ground shifting and moving. and after a major shift there might be a small aftershock witch is when the 'plates' in the ground move slightly as they are going back into place
A small wave, or miniature tsunami, is called a seiche. It can occur in lakes, dams and even pools, and is caused by earthquake tremors.
There are several things that may indicate an upcoming earthquake. Swarms, seismic activity, small tremors are the main indicators.
Small tremors before a major earthquake are referred to as foreshocks. They occur before 70 percent of large seismic events, and to a lesser extent before smaller earthquakes.

They all called Tremors
