Natural Calamities

Earthquake - tremors and vibrations of the earth's surface. According to modern concepts, earthquakes reflect the process of geological transformation of the planet. It is believed that the root cause of earthquakes is global geological and tectonic forces, but their nature is currently not entirely clear. The appearance of these forces is associated with temperature drops in the interior of the Earth. Most earthquakes occur at the edges of tectonic plates. It is noticed that over the past two centuries, strong earthquakes have arisen as a result of the breakthrough of large faults that come out to the surface.
