Abstract:
|
The article discusses the possibility that human beings triggered the great earthquake of China's Sichuan Province and the hypothesis that the construction of the Zipingpu Dam may have caused a reservoir-triggered seismological event. Topics include research by seismologists investigating the relationship between dam building and fault stress and an overview of a report published in "Geology and Seismology" concluding that falling water levels may trigger an earthquake. |
