. . . or Liquefaction

Submitted by ytc on Thu, 04/14/2011 - 11:28.

It's not limited to land-filled coastal areas. The scale of the tectonic plate movement of this mega-quake is comparable to the ones recorded for A.D. 869 (Jougan earthquake) and 1896 (Meiji earthquake). One mayor of a little coastal village of Fudai remembered the old saying that "the Meiji earthquake brought about 15meters high Tsunami" and stubbornly insisted on building 15.5 meters H x 155 meters L dike in 1960s. At the time he was ridiculed for "wasting" so much money, impoverishing the meager village coffer. This village of 3000 or so people ALL survived this time.

I love it when you use big words!

This is due to all of the quakes/aftershocks.

Buildings sink when they are constructed on ground with a high water table that are then shaken, and that is a fact.

The ground is very unstable there.

dude, it was landfill.

Submitted by HVACTech on Thu, 04/14/2011 - 01:42.

Hmm, I wonder why they had to fill it in, in the first place? mebbe because it got washed away in the past?

quicksand does not exist in MT?

heck, I bet the next thing you are going to tell me is the ant's don't bite either.

No biting ants here, and no quicksand either....

just solid bedrock.

I hate it when that happens!

Submitted by HVACTech on Thu, 04/14/2011 - 01:19.

yes, it was all built on landfill. not only that, Fxxxxshima was also built at sea level.
the back up generators were "below" ground level.
Hmm, seems they got wet. darn it!
I hate it when that happens!
the Japanese are good copycats.

so, I will STXX.
even if, well you know, if most of their words sound like somebody just sneezed...or itchyxxxxxx.

And they used GE's reactor

Submitted by RiverRun on Thu, 04/14/2011 - 02:03.

And they used GE's reactor design, which was cheaper than Westinghouse's. The Westinghouse design had more safety built in.

They saved some money, and are now exporting their pollution to my food and water.

Important underlying theme ...

Would this be caused by the water table swelling with water from the Tsunami?

no.

What is time scale? Are you referring to water rising to its own level?

no.

Submitted by HVACTech on Thu, 04/14/2011 - 03:25.

it would not have time.

a tsunami would not affect or effect the water table.

love you babe!

hydrostatic pressure would prohibit this.

not that, well you know, I have any experience in things that swell. dear.

They're wearing masks, shopping for survival, and the ground rises considerably spewing water between cracks.
What a nightmare.

Ground liquification vid is several weeks old

Submitted by yesliberty on Wed, 04/13/2011 - 19:02.

That doesn't mean it isn't fascinating . . . it is.

I cannot even ascertain whether the video is of post 3-11 quake footage or from some time prior . . .

Wow! Pretty ...

Submitted by yogmama on Wed, 04/13/2011 - 18:51.

spooky. I wonder what it is that is causing the ground to move that way? I don't understand the mechanics of liquification so much--it's so weird!

I read in one of the comments that it could possible be the result of the man-made land that they built upon that could now be eroding.

Interesting. Where is the

Interesting. Where is the basis for the 'liquification' claim, though?
