Terrible Earthquake: Chichi Earthquake (Taiwan) in 1999

ASIAN EARTHQUAKE - EARTHQUAKE IN TAIWAN - CHICHI EARTHQUAKE - TECTONIC EARTHQUAKE - EPICENTRUM OF EARTHQUAKE 1999

Nantou Monument Memorial 1999

   Chichi earthquake has a strength of 7.3-scale earthquake ritcher. The quake epicenter is located in southwest Lake Sun Moon. precisely located at latitude 23.85 degrees north of the point and longitude 120.82 degrees east at that point. Chichi earthquake depth is 8 kilometers

   Chichi earthquake in Taiwan earthquakes commonly called 921.
Why call an earthquake in 921?
  * the answer is because the quake occurred at 1:47:15:9 CST / 17:47:15:9 UTC on 21 Sepetember 1999 in the area Chichi, Nantou, Taiwan.

  Taiwan quake death toll raises quite a lot. In the estimated 2416 people died instantly. and 11,400 wounded.

Earthquake Damage

Earthquake is natural and we do not expect his presence. Here I tried to decipher some of the causes of earthquakes occurring in this world.

  The main factors of the earthquake is due to the release of energy generated by the pressure exerted by a moving plate.
When the pressure is enlarged and can not be detained again by the earth, that's when the earthquake struck.

The Causes of Earthquakes :

 - Earthquakes usually occur between two different plates. A place where the compressional and translational plates meet, then it is likely there will be a terrible earthquake.

 - Earthquakes can also occur due to the eruption of a volcano or more we are familiar with volcanic earthquakes

 - Earthquakes can also occur because of accumulated huge mass of water behind the dam, such as the Caribbean Dam in Zambia, Africa

 - Earthquakes can also occur due to injection or akstraksi fluid from / into the earth

Haiti Earthquake

    Earthquake is the shock that occurs on the surface of the earth due to movements of Earth's plates. The word earthquake usually used to indicate the location of the earthquake example jogjakarta earthquake, california earthquake, japan earthquake.

    Earth is something that is made of stone - rocks. even though our world because many elements of rock solid and always rotating, but the earthquake occurred due to the pressure that occur due to plate movement is not arrested again.

  * There are several kinds of earthquakes:

       - Volcanic Earthquake (Volcano)

       - Tectonic Earthquake

Volcanic Earthquake

* Volcanic Earthquake is earthquake occurred as a result of volcanic activity of the magma before it erupts. The more active magmatic activity, it will cause an explosion that caused the earthquake, but the earthquake was only felt in the vicinity of the volcano.

Tectonic Earthquake

*Tectonic Earthquake is earthquake was caused by the tectonic activity, namely a shift in plate tectonic plates suddenly having the power of the very small to very large.
