SEAQUAKES LOUDER THAN NUCLEAR EXPLOSIONS

Image
On page 36 of his book on sound imaging in the ocean, German underwater acoustic Professor Peter Willie, the former head of NATO's Undersea Research Center, displays three similar sonograms and compares the noise generated by undersea earthquakes and volcanic explosions with that of submarine nuclear explosions of several thousand tons of TNT-equivalent (ref #1).  Professor Willie says earthquake sounds are the loudest underwater sounds ever produced. He also cautions that we should be aware of the underwater rumbling of   "about 7,000 outstanding, dramatic geodynamic earthquake events per year worldwide, each of a thousand tons of TNT-equivalent and more."   He ought to know because it's his job to determine the acoustic differences between underwater nuclear explosions and natural catastrophic events such as earthquakes. Professor Willie also expresses a belief that evolution has somehow intervened to protect whales from undersea earthquakes. I agree. Whales c

WHALES PUT BAD KARMA ON JAPAN

World's Most Deadly Earthquake Occur in Japan Whales Can Predict Earthquakes Three Weeks in Advance.   Killing Them Brings Bad Karma to Japan read the real reason all whales mass strand You’ll understand how killing whales causes bad karma on Japanese citizens by the time you finish this article. I promise you'll be shocked! I am a 75-year-old retired sea captain with 50 years of ocean-going experience who has been working all my adult life to unravel the association whales have with violent undersea earthquakes and volcanic explosions. I am now working on a special project that, if successful, will win a Nobel Prize. Maybe not for me, but certainly for the physicists and other scientists that volunteer to help me. Japan will be the biggest benefactor and should be the largest financial contributor to this effort; I sure hope they get involved. Here's the full story. I used to run an oil supply ship for Global Marine. I was off the

Seaquakes Kill 337 Whales in Chile!

337 baleen whales washed ashore in Patagonia, Chile. They were killed by several powerful undersea earthquakes in the Southern Ocean 2,000 to 3,000 miles west of the stranding site! Or it might have been a  meteorite?    Large meteors striking the surface of ocean have been reported to generate shocks as large as ten kilotons of  TNT equivalent. seaquake in Southern Chile  kills 47 whales The 1908 newspaper article on the left tells how 47 whales were killed by a Marine Upheaval (seaquake) off Southern Chile's Cape Horn not too far from where 337 dead whales were recently found. You can find a better copy at this link . And, if you click on "other clippings by deafwhale" you will see a lot more seaquake evidence. It's a wake-up call to those who love whales and wonder why they beach themselves. Rapid changes in diving pressures  generated by undersea earthquakes and volcanic explosions (seaquakes) have been killing whales for millions
