A: Tectonic setting of Trinidad in Caribbean showing results of previous global positioning system (GPS) studies that use stable South America as reference frame. Green vectors are from Pérez et al. (2001); orange vectors are from Trenkamp et al. (2002); blue vectors are from Weber et al. (2001). Diagonal box east of Trinidad shows area of 3-D seismic survey in B. BFZ—Boconó fault zone; EPFZ—El Pilar fault zone. B: Map showing geology of Trinidad, offshore bathymetry, and major faults. Blue GPS vectors are from Weber et al. (2001); red vectors are from survey study (Saleh et al., 2004), which includes British historical benchmarks established in 1901–1903. All vectors are relative to stable South America. Diagonal box indicates area of 3-D seismic survey; red lines within 3-D are seismic profi les shown in Figures 2B–2E, and offset, subsurface paleochannel. OR—Ortoire River; NR—Navet River; NS—Nariva swamp; MMU—surface trace of middle Miocene unconformity; NCFZ—North Coast fault zone; AFZ—Arima fault zone; WSFZ—Warm Springs fault zone; LBFZ—Los Bajos fault zone; CFZ—Caigual fault zone; NDRFZ—North Darien Ridge fault zone; CRFZ—Central Range fault zone.

No thanks .....after that August 21st experience, I hope to never feel one like that ever in my lifetime again.shake d livin wake d dead wrote:just imagine the 6.0 @ that depth
UWI Seismic Research Centre wrote:As you are aware, there were two earthquakes near Trinidad during the evening of 9th Sept. The first, of magnitude 4.0, occurred at 7:53 p.m., followed at 11:34 p.m. by a magnitude 4.2 event. These earthquakes are not part of the aftershock sequence that began on 21st August with the magnitude 6.9 event. They belong to the normal annual earthquake activity expected from the complex fault systems north of Trinidad and in the Gulf of Paria and are, therefore, not, in and of themselves, indicative of anything more significant to come. It should be noted, however, that an aftershock, from the 6.9 on 21st August, in the magnitude range 6.1-6.5 can occur and be consistent with what is expected for that sequence, as the system settles. An important point to remember is that strong earthquakes, like the 6.9, are also a normal part of the activity pattern, as are those of even larger magnitude and those will also, one day, occur. We, therefore, should ensure that we are always prepared.

If that earthquake was 50km closer or 20ft less shallow .........God alone knows yes.........thanks be to Almighty indeed.matr1x wrote:Also, imagine if the earthquake had latest 10 minutes versus the 1 and half minutes we got...
