Earthquakes can effect the environment in more ways then just a shifting of the land above the quake epicenter. Earthquakes can change the flow and level of water courses. The quake can change the quality of the water in underground stream or re direct them away for area that depend on them. Quakes also cause mortality among wildlife that can disrupt the food chain causing organisms to die.
