SchoolShake

Did you hear 4 loud booms near Victoria, BC yesterday? A number of the @SchoolShake @raspishake seismographs recorded them. These are not earthquakes, but likely related to Naval activities near Metchosin.

#ShakeEducation Last week we talked about the asperities on a #fault. But, does a fault break all at once? A very thorough explanation in this video by @IRIS_EPO ➡️ iris.edu/hq/inclass/ani…

@faulty_data @GSC_CGC @schaefferaj @raspishake @faulty_data well said. Exciting to see this starting now after early discussions 2 years ago now! It will be a great experience for kids of all ages!

New partnership between @UVicScience & @GSC_CGC (@NRCan) will bring mini seismometers to #VancouverIsland classrooms, provide critical data to researchers to help BC communities prepare for 'the Big One'. 📺 ow.ly/CqwA50IAkI3 @SchoolShake

BC's coast is divided into five tsunami notification zones. Know which ones apply to you so you can respond quickly during a tsunami. Learn more & find detailed zone maps at PreparedBC.ca/tsunamis #TsunamiPreparednessWeek

It is #TsunamiPreparednessWeek in British Columbia. #DYK that a tsunami is not "a wave" but rather a series of waves that can continue for hours?
