Why did the earthquake in christchurch have so many aftershocks?
The reason that there have been so many aftershocks after the 2010 Christchurch earthquake is because bigger earthquakes have not only stronger aftershocks, but more of them. Aftershocks happen because when an earthquake occurs, the earth's plates hardly ever settle into a stable position straight away. So, the newly moved rock has to be settle.
Why didn't a tsunami occur after the Christchurch earthquake?
A tsunami did occur after the Christchurch earthquake, but it was relatively small and localized. The earthquake did not generate a large enough displacement of water to create a significant tsunami. Additionally, the orientation of the fault line and the shallow depth of the earthquake further limited the potential for a widespread tsunami.

What caused the Christchurch earthquake in 2011 and why was it so deadly?
The Christchurch earthquake in 2011 was caused by the rupture of a previously unknown fault line, known as the Greendale Fault. It was a magnitude 6.3 earthquake that struck close to the city center, resulting in significant damage and loss of life. The earthquake was particularly deadly due to its shallow depth, close proximity to populated areas, and the vulnerability of the older buildings in Christchurch to seismic activity.
