Description
RED SEISMIC BEACON
Bryce Booleans Art
An earthquake (also known as a tremor or temblor) is the result of a sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust that creates seismic waves. Earthquakes are recorded with a seismometer, also known as a seismograph.
The moment magnitude (or the related and mostly obsolete Richter magnitude) of an earthquake is conventionally reported, with magnitude 3 or lower earthquakes being mostly imperceptible
and magnitude 7 causing serious damage over large areas.
Intensity of shaking is measured on the modified Mercalli scale.
At the Earth's surface, earthquakes manifest themselves by shaking and sometimes displacing the ground. When a large earthquake epicenter is located offshore, the seabed sometimes suffers sufficient displacement to cause a tsunami.
The shaking in earthquakes can also trigger landslides and occasionally volcanic activity.
In its most generic sense, the word earthquake is used to describe any seismic event — whether a natural phenomenon or an event caused by humans — that generates seismic waves. Earthquakes are caused mostly by rupture of geological faults, but also by volcanic activity, landslides, mine blasts, and nuclear experiments.
An earthquake's point of initial rupture is called its focus or hypocenter. The term epicenter refers to the point at ground level directly above the hypocenter.

Magnitude 7.2 - SOLOMON ISLANDS
The Solomon Islands earthquake of January 3, 2010, likely occurred at the boundary between the Pacific and Australian plates,
where the Australian plate subducts beneath the Pacific towards the northeast at a rate of approximately 95 mm/yr.
The mechanism of the January 3rd earthquake is consistent with its occurrence in relation to underthrusting of the Australia plate
beneath the Pacific plate, as part of this subduction process.

lovely bryce work x
a great beacon ! wonderful work
Great render!
Beautiful color and POV! What would we do without your wonderful science lessons. I'll have to ask my Solomon Island eclectus parrot if he had any relatives affected.
Wonderful image and information!!
Great job!
Very dynamic image and POV! Fitting for the subject.
Wonderful render MU :)thanks for the informations***********
J'adore cette mer de tranquillité... rouge...

Very interesting!!!! Good image!!!!
Imaginative futurism and creative realization Magik....!!! Excellent done....!!!
Way cool, Magik love the colors warm hugs, Linda
Le titre est bien imaginé. Le rendu est impec'. (Les armements météorologiques et ionosphèriques sont un vrai problème...)
Excellent work!
Let's go there and see what's happening! Bravo!
Interesting composition! :)
