Earthquakes
Spreading center earthquakes are always shallow, subduction zone earthquakes can be very deep.Spreading center earthquakes are typically of lower magnitude than subduction zone earthquakes.
Intraplate earthquakes occur farther inland than other earthquakes. These earthquakes occur within a tectonic plate, away from plate boundaries where most earthquakes typically occur. Intraplate earthquakes can be caused by ancient faults or stress within the plate itself.
Yes. Earthquakes of SOME intensity happen SOMEWHERE every day. There were 2 strong earthquakes today, one in Italy, one in Tonga. The running tally for 26 October 2016 from earthquaketrack.com:99 earthquakes today681 earthquakes in the past 7 days3,156 earthquakes in the past month41,088 earthquakes in the past year
If you take the past earthquakes and study them and how they were you can find out about where some future earthquakes might be then you can provide a warning for earthquakes about 10% of the time.
This is not a record of a Magnitude 8 or Greater Earthquake during the year

There have been many earthquakes in Michigan dating back to at least 1872. The most notable of these was the August 10, 1947 quake centered southeast of Battle Creek which registered at 4.6 on the Richter. According to the USGS, was a 3.5 centered about 1.5 miles north of Capital City Airport in Lansing, September 2, 1994. There was also one in 1998.
The three types of earthquakes are tectonic earthquakes, volcanic earthquakes, and collapse earthquakes. Tectonic earthquakes are the most common and are caused by the movement of earth's plates. Volcanic earthquakes occur in association with volcanic activity, while collapse earthquakes happen in underground mines and caverns.
Yes, earthquakes are geological.
Earthquakes can happen anywhere.
yes there are earthquakes in Kansas.
