Chile Earthquake Seismic Gap
One of the theories about earthquake occurrence over the years is that seismic gaps develop between major and great earthquakes, and are eventually filled. With that in mind, it is interesting to plot the approximate slip planes for both the M8.8 earthquake of 27 February, 2010, and today's M8.2 earthquake of April 1, 2014.

Any way your themes are nice one. Good topic. Your post will help studets more for their study. Your graph Information is very nice. from that reader will catch the ideas of you easily.useful source
I have discussed it recently with the writers at handmadewritings. We need to write a research paper nd have learned some theories about earthquake occurrence.
It is an interesting but tricky question.
I am looking forward to reading more articles on this topic at openhazards.
The Chile Earthquake Seismic Gap is absolutely massive. The two impact points are a thousand miles apart and that is a long distance. The http://bestessaypoint.com/ mentioned about how unusual such events are geographically.
