Rebentação de instalações elétricas ou isto? Não havia mau tempo na altura.

NZ's quake last night created a phenomenon where, as the plates move, the Earth's positive electric field is disrupted by the enormous force. The rock actually produces a separation charge creating a 'dent' in the electric field and causing the atmospheric discharge.

It's been called ( Positive Hole) p-hole charge clouds, which arrive at the
Earth’s surface, generate a positive ground potential. The discovery of p-holes as powerful charge carriers that are activated through high levels of stress in the Earth’s crust before earthquakes may also provide an answer to ionospheric perturbations. If p-hole charge clouds spread to the surface, they not only generate high electric fields at the rock-to-air interface
but also lead to an overall increase in the ground potential.

If the Earth’s ground reaches sufficiently high positive values, we have a situation that can be described as a capacitor. The Earth’s surface represents one fixed capacitor plate.

The lower edge of the highly conductive ionosphere represents the opposite capacitor plate, which can move up or down or to the side. If the positive ground potential increases due to the arrival of p-hole charge clouds, the associated electric field is bound to affect the ionospheric capacitor plate.

Quake recovery efforts will be hampered by the weather today, with severe gales gusting up to 140km/h expected to hit the upper South Island and lower North Island today.

MetService has issued a severe weather warning for Wellington, Marlborough and the Wairarapa, with severe gale north to northwest winds forecast to develop in exposed places.

As réplicas associadas aos significativos acumulados faz com que haja condições favoráveis à ocorrência de mais derrocadas.

Há pouco mais um sismo de 5.1. Muita malta ficará com os seus bens ainda mais danificados. Há pelo menos 2 mortos.

IMPORTANT Update 19:14 UTC : Two people have been confirmed dead after a severe 7.5 earthquake hit North Canterbury early on Monday morning.
One person was killed when a Kaikoura homestead collapsed, while another died at a property at Mt Lyford.
A tsunami alert was earlier issued for all coastal areas of New Zealand but has since been scaled back. A tsunami warning still stands in certain areas.




Update 19:11 UTC : Prime Minister gives a statement on how the situation is at this moment

Evacuated Christchurch family has house burgled and ransacked, truck stolen

A Christchurch family who evacuated after the massive quake returned home to find their house had been ransacked by burglars, who stole electronics, a truck, and equipment for their daughter's hearing aid.

Matt Mill, of New Brighton, said his family of four had left their home about 2am on Monday, after the tsunami risk was broadcast.

"We thought we'd do the right thing and pack the kids up, and the pets, and get out of here."

Explained: The science behind the quake

Scientists investigating the mechanics of the earthquake say it faulted in the same way the February 22, 2011, Christchurch Earthquake did.

GNS Science seismologist John Ristau said the quake, which struck at magnitude 7.5 severe earthquake has struck 15 km north-east of Culverden at 12.02am, was the result of what's called thrust faulting, a type of reverse faulting.

In reverse faulting, in a compressed area of the Earth's crust, one rocky block - called the "hanging-wall" block - is pushed up relative to rock - "the footwall block" - on the other side.

GeoNet had also received reports of odd light in the sky, but had been unable to investigate it.

For New Zealand, the prime earthquake threat remains the Alpine Fault, running along the spine of the South Island, and which is likely to cause a major quake within this generation's lifetime.

It last ruptured in 1717, or 297 years ago, and had a 28 per cent probability of rupturing in the next 50 years - a rate high by global standards.

According to GNS Science, this rupture would produce one of the biggest earthquakes since European settlement of New Zealand, and would have a "major impact" on the lives of many people.

Estimam-se que tenham ocorrido 100.000 derrocadas na NZ.

A povoação de Kaikoura...

... está isolada. A marinha irá enviar um navio para auxiliar os locais e turistas (pensa-se que há no máximo 1000).

O nordeste da ilha do sul poderá ser afetada por inúmeros sismos >5 nos próximos meses.

Foi registado um tsunami de 5 metros.

Nota para algumas vacas que sobreviveram às derrocadas:

Os danos irão cifrar-se nos milhares de milhões.

GNS geodetic scientist Dr Sigrun Hreinsdottir expected to see widespread deformation across the country, ranging from millimetres to several metres of displacement.

One of the most dramatic readings had come in from a GPS station at Cape Campbell - more than 200km away from the epicentre at Culverden but near where many of the large aftershocks hit - showing that the site had shifted 2m.

Hreinsdottir said this could be expected in large quakes: in other events she'd looked at, land had shifted 3 or 4m.

"We are looking at the data currently, but we are expecting to see deformation over whole of New Zealand, from millimetres to metres," she said.

GeoNet quake monitoring not staffed nights, weekends

He said because GeoNet was not staffed overnight or on weekends it was unable to provide tsunami warnings as quickly as he would have liked.

"The best practice is to have someone who is awake and ready to respond straight away, he said.

"And that's a human being, not a machine.

"The machines are doing most of the work, but there's a human being for the final decision."

At night and the weekend there are two duty people, in Wellington and Taupo, and they were woken if there was a major event, he said.

Em suma, 2 mortos e mais ou menos 20 feridos. Já ocorreram mais de 1400 réplicas. A intensidade ficou nos 7.8 não obstante ainda haverem notícias com valores diferentes.
