The islands of the Lesser Antilles are formed by the subduction of the North and South American Plates (referred here as the "Atlantic plate") beneath the Caribbean Plate. Much has been learned in the past decades about the affect of the subducting plate. - Věda a technologie
Another fine, educational video. I learned a lot, thanks so much!
Thank you.
3:30 AWESOME visual of the depth of each major quake, ive been doing some research on earthquakes because the region has seen elevated occurrence of earthquakes for the last month or so, im wondering if it means the caribbean plate is feeling pressurized and getting ready to release that pressure with a large earthquake, its been 16 years and a week since the 2007 Martinique earthquake. Also ive seen this term accretionary prison online when looking for Barbados seismic activity stuff, does this mean Barbados is a younger island than the rest and how come the island doesnt experience as many earthquakes as the northeastern caribbean and areas such as venezuela and Trinidad?
7:55 Those Photos aren't of Kick Em Jenny BTW lol, the 1939 picture is just one that's used to show what it might've looked like during the moderate 1939 eruption that caused a small tsunami I think, not sure where that 2017 picture came from but it definitely isn't from Kick em Jenny lol
Very educational. Thank you!
Pls make a video about the tectonics of Indonesia
thanks so much for this videos. May be can you make video about deep-focus seismic models. I wont to learn this problems.
You are quite welcome. And deep-focus earthquakes are on our list for next year.
I have gone upto Phd in chemical engineering, but shifted to geophysics in the middle of it, because of strong interest in understanding the geophysics of life.
Didn't it ever occur to you that the foremost task of Geoscience specifically (though it applies to all search for knowledge as such, in general) must be to derive the mathematical model, and the formulae for, growth of plants as a function of particle interactions inside the earth that lead to composition of seeds, water and fertilizer, which enable them (plants) to grow?
It is obvious that such a process should exist, if we are to give physical explanation, and acquire control over, our own appearance on the surface of the earth.
This, composition of beings inside and delivery through plants as food to be assembled by already delivered beings, is a procrss that the earth performs billions of times every single day.
Why do we ignore this completely, i.e. to analyze the earth as the only vessel that performs this function in the entire known universe?
In addition, such knowledge of plants as nature's own "all in one" measuring instrument and potential controller of internal functions of the earth, would outperform, and render superfluous, all man made measuring instruments by far and serve as the only tool available to prevent disasters and deseases before they occur..
I would like to know your (and, of course, anybody else's) view on this, especially as plants remain the only tangible entity that delivers and sustains life (100%) in the entire known universe?
Are the North and South American plates fused?
No

Guys, this is an earthquake.
