The reason why the Lincolnshire earthquake happend, was because all the vibrations of the other plates under the ground surounding it couldn't take any more preasure and then it just... Contact me on:...? Please ;]] x] I think the pacific plates... moved i am having a guess but it might have been the Asian one... im such a nerd ain't i ! ;]] lol

What caused the assisi earthquake?

The Assisi earthquake in 1997 was caused by the seismic activity along the Apennine fault line that runs through central Italy. The movement of tectonic plates beneath the Earth's surface caused a sudden release of energy, resulting in the earthquake.


Which plates moved in the christchurch earthquke 2011?

The 2011 Christchurch earthquake in New Zealand was caused by the Pacific Plate sliding past the Australian Plate along the Alpine Fault. The movement between these two plates created stress that was released in the form of the earthquake.


What caused the 2008 China Earthquake?

The 2008 earthquake in China, known as the Wenchuan earthquake, was caused by the sudden release of stress accumulated along a fault line due to the movement of the tectonic plates in the region. The seismic activity in the area is influenced by the collision of the Indian Plate with the Eurasian Plate.


How can one earthquake cause another?

Earthquakes can pressure highly stressed fault lines and trigger subsequent seismic events. If correct, so-called stress triggering theory could help scientists pinpoint areas where earthquakes are imminent. The earthquakes immediately following one earthquake are called aftershocks. Tectonic plates are moving all the time. The aftershocks can occur because the initial earthquake may have moved things into another position. Then the plates will make additional small adjustments (the aftershocks) to release new pressures that the initial earthquake caused between tectonic plates when they moved. The fault line between the plates may become less stable and then later an entirely new earthquake may occur at the same or at a close by site. It is the instability of the tectonic plates left after one earthquake that can cause others.


How did the plates in Haiti move?

The plates in Haiti moved due to the shifting of tectonic plates along a fault line called the Enriquillo-Plantain Garden fault zone. This movement resulted in the devastating earthquake that struck Haiti in 2010.

How did the valdivia earthquake happen?

The Valdivia earthquake, also known as the Great Chilean Earthquake, occurred on May 22, 1960, in southern Chile. It was a result of the Nazca plate subducting beneath the South American plate along the Peru-Chile Trench. The movement of these tectonic plates caused a massive release of energy, resulting in the strongest recorded earthquake in history.
